commems CCF Master Historian of USA Commemoratives United States 12251 Posts	Posted 03/11/2022 6:14 pm How about something different for a Friday night? A quick trivia quiz. (With a small prize!) Today, it's legally mandated in authorizing Acts that modern US commemorative coins must include the inscriptions "In God We Trust" "E Pluribus Unum" and "Liberty". But this wasn't always the case. So, answer me this: Which classic-era US commemorative coin was the first to feature "In God We Trust"? ... "E Pluribus Unum"? ... "Liberty"? I'll put the names of those who respond with all three correct answers between now and 6:00pm on Saturday (3/12/22) in a "hat" and select a winner at random (using MS-Excel). The prize: A commemorative medal celebrating the 100th Anniversary of the American Numismatic Association issued by CoinWorld back in 1991. Collecting history one coin or medal at a time!
