Most of the masons who have appeared on U.S. coins did so in the commemorative series, so I'll publish the link here.

An interesting piece that took us a few weeks of research.

Very well done Charles ... as usual.

The 'flip of a coin' question ... 3rd USA coin to feature a foreign leader ... I'm going with the Lafayette dollar.

Thanks for sharing this with us.

@Not Mint to Be- can you get in touch with me again- i'd like to propose a way to image your counterstamped coin.

I collect counterstamped commemorative coins.

The Masonic connection is interesting.
