Dorado, I would classify them as goggles, not glasses, but good try. :)

I just went through all of my world coins and no women wearing glasses.  Check out my counterstamped Lincoln Cent collection: http://goccf.com/t/303507 |

Goggles, or safety glasses, are forms of protective eyewear that usually enclose or protect the area surrounding the eye in order to prevent particulates, water or chemicals from striking the eyes. They are used in chemistry laboratories and in woodworking....  |

Goodness sake, just let him have it. We can't excuse modern sexism for the fact no near sighted ladies have been numismatically blessed.
What about women who wore glasses at times, but chose not to on the coin.
Examples Susan B Anthony, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, Her Majesty Queen Margarethe II of Denmark and Queen Victoria?

Honestly, when I did this, I didn't realise 1822 would be so difficult. Then I checked my coins and I don't have one either. Ouch!  Quote:
