coinhead1 Posted March 1, 2002 Share Posted March 1, 2002 Arch, you are half right, it was Ethal Merman after she won the 1921 swimming contest in her jr high school meet, The water girls grand mother took second. Really I believe it was the lady herself, you know the one from France, Miss Liberty, the statue of Liberty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 2, 2002 Share Posted March 2, 2002 The designer, Anthony di Francisci of the Peace Dollar used his wife, Teresa as the model for this coins engraving. So, technically; the model's name is Teresa di Francisci. If answered correctly I can provide the resources in which this information was obtained. Thank you. tggr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
