Happy 250th America! New coin designs from the US Mint.
Can America get a fucking grip? The martyrdom of Charlie Kirk is sickening. He was a hate filled monster who just had a podcast. He wasnât a politician or any kind of distinguished public figure. He sure as fuck didnât do anything positive. JFC

Alex Samuels at Daily Kos:
The Trump administration has opened a new front in its war on âwoke,â this time in a place few Americans ever think to look: the nationâs pocket change. According to the Wall Street Journal, the administration quietly scrapped plans to commemorate the abolition of slavery, womenâs suffrage, and the Civil Rights Movement in newly minted quarters ahead of the nationâs 250th birthday. The U.S. Mint had been developing those themes for years, with teams of historians, artists, and federal panels sketching out five special-edition coins that were never formally announced.
Instead of abolitionist Frederick Douglass, a suffragist holding a âvotes for womenâ sign, or Ruby Bridges walking into a newly desegregated school, the Mint revealed Wednesday that the 2026 quarters will feature George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, and James Madisonâplus a tableau of pilgrims glimpsing the shores of North America. The unveiling coincided with an even more controversial debate coming to a head: whether to put President Donald Trumpâs face on a new $1 coin. Senate Democrats moved this week to block the idea, citing long-standing precedent against featuring a living or sitting president on circulating currency.
[...] The administration has given little explanation for the sudden pivot. But considering Trumpâs steady campaign against diversity, equity, and inclusion programsâand his complaints that museums and cultural institutions focus too much on the ânegativeâ parts of U.S. historyâthe shift fits neatly into a larger ideological project. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has final approval over new coin designs, and his decisions will likely reflect the administrationâs preference for traditional imagery, avoiding anything that could be read as a nod to contemporary debates over race or representation.
[...] By late 2024, the group made its picks: Douglass and the hand of someone freed from slavery for the abolition quarter; a suffragist to represent womenâs rights; and a portrait of Bridges paired with a civil rights march and the line âwe shall overcome.â A second federal panel, the Commission of Fine Arts, reviewed the same themes and offered some alternative recommendations. But Trump fired its members earlier this year, and the commission has yet to be reconstitutedâa sign of how abruptly the administration abandoned this work.
This is white male entitlement in action by the Trump Regime: quarters that were set to feature the abolition of slavery, womenâs suffrage, and the Civil Rights Movement have been scrapped.
I have a theory
Chris Carter creates the X Files. This inspires Jeffrey Reddick to write a spec script for a potential episode. This spec script becomes Final Destination. Final Destination becomes a smash hit with 5 movies. The 6th one comes out. The premonition is all caused by a penny. The US Mint stops making pennies 6 months after the movie comes out.
here is another interesting item. i keep this inside my collecting binder, where i keep maps and pamphlets from sites and things like that. this is a 2000 United States Mint Uncirculated Coin Set.
this is a cute story for me personally. my best friend's dad sells coins and does other coin collection work on the side. when i went to pick them up to hang out one day, there were having a garage sale. their dad waved me over and quickly asked me about my interest in history. in the end, he gave me these for free. he also gave me an interesting souvenir coin, which you can see here.
the red and blue sets both have the same coins inside, but i uploaded both in case anyone was curious. the blue set is labelled from philadelphia, and the red for denver.
the coins featured:
Massachusetts Quarter (Reverse: Bay Statue Minute Man)
Maryland Quarter (Reverse: State House Dome)
South Carolina Quarter (Reverse: Palmetto Palm, Carolina Wren, Yellow Jessamine)
New Hampshire Quarter (Reverse: Old Man of the Mountain)
Virginia Quarter (Reverse: Jamestown Quadricentennial)
Cent (Reverse: Lincoln memorial)
Nickel (Reverse: Monticello)
Dime (Reverse: Torch, Olive Branch, Oak Branch)
Half-Dollar (Reverse: Heraldic Eagle)
Dollar (Reverse: Eagle in flight)
The last US penny was minted on November 12, 2025, at the US Mint in Philadelphia, officially ending the coin's 232-year production run.
