U.S. Mint Headquarters – Washington, D.C.
“The next item on our agenda, gentlemen, is the dollar coin. We need to mint a new one. We will be depleted of our Susan B. Anthony silver dollars by the turn of the new millennium. Later this year, the bill that proposes the 50 states commemorative quarters should be passed into law. We will add the plan for the new dollar coin to this bill. Now, I’ve already decided that the coin should be gold instead of silver, and the American eagle should still be pictured on the back. Any suggestions on the obverse image?”
Ignoring the ‘gentlemen’ appellation, the only woman in the meeting, who was also the youngest person in the room, immediately raised her hand, but the director called on the elderly gentleman sitting to her right. “Johnson?”
Johnson appeared to be barely awake. “How about a president?” he muttered groggily.
“Oh come on, Johnson. Let’s show a bit more imagination. There’s presidents on all the paper money.”
“Not the twenty or the C-note.”
The director rolled his eyes. “You know what I meant. Yes, Marshall?”
A thin man with graying hair raised a pen in the air. “How about Paul Revere?”
The director rubbed his chin for a moment pondering it. Then he shook his head. “No. No, that’s good, but no one would recognize him without the horse, and that’s a lot to put on a coin.”
“Sir?” The young woman tried again to get his attention. The director ignored her again and called on a heavy-set man in the corner who had just raised a candy bar to his mouth.
“Randolph! What have you got for me?”
“Uh . . .” He looked down at the candy wrapper. “Clark?” he muttered.
“What was that, son? Speak up!” the older man ordered.
The man flushed, and then stammered, “Clark, sir? Uh . . . Lewis and Clark?”
The director smiled broadly. “Lewis and Clark! That’s brilliant, Randolph!”
Everyone at the table clapped, following their superior’s lead. Everyone except the young woman that is. “Sir! Please! I’d really like to say something about this!”
The director turned to look at the young woman. “Yes, Sharon. What would you like to say, dear?” She frowned a bit at being the only one addressed so familiarly.
“Sir.” She ed ted to compose herself. “I think part of the beauty of the Susan B. Anthony dollar was that it featured a woman. The image of Lady Liberty has been a popular one for the dollar coin. There are men on all the paper money as was stated earlier, and men are on every other coin, too. It’s my belief that the public would be proud to have a female patriot remain on the gold dollar.”
He smiled patronizingly at her. “Oh, dear. Sharon, the dollar coin needs to change. The public likes change. We will not be leaving Susan B. Anthony on the coin.”
“Besides, she’s a real ‘dog’, isn’t she?” the thin, graying man muttered to the man next to him. “The beauty of the coin my ass!” Sharon scowled at him momentarily before turning to address the director again.
“Sir. I was not suggesting that we do, but there are many other women in U.S. history who could be her replacement. I have a list here of several women we could . . .”
The men in the room snorted. The director got up and patted the young woman’s hand. “Sharon, dear. The decision has been made. Lewis and Clark. I trust your research is very good.” He said this as a father might speak to a child who has just shown him macaroni art. “But Randolph’s research says Lewis and Clark would be better.”
Sharon frowned down the table at Quentin Randolph. He was smiling smugly at her, eating the candy bar that had just been wrapped in his ‘research’.
“Fine sir. But I think a lot of American women will be very disappointed.”- You need to be logged in to leave a review for this story.You need to be logged in to leave a review for this story.
