Show The "lluzzard Dollar." Chlesitn Herald. A new stamp is to be made for tho silver dollar. The old coin is far from handsome. The goddess of liberty looks excessively fat and beefy, and tho eagle resembles Carter Harrison's forlorn for-lorn and bedraggled fowl more than it does a genuine and exultant bird of freedom. The director of tho mint has offered a prizo of $500 for the best design, de-sign, ami there ought.to be enough artistic ar-tistic genius in the country to produce a better looking coin than the "buzzard dollar." |
