Sorry about the fists. I don’t know how naysayers slipped in there.

REB,
It’s possible the San Francisco Mint’s next place of operation might be as an attachment to a notorious enclave in Florida, Mar-a-Loco.

And the scariest thing about that scenario, REB, is that North Korea, China and Russia have already brought that reality to bear.

It goes without saying that the San Francisco Mint would be shuttered and moved to Mississippi. Farewell Adolph Alexander Weinman. Imagine the fabulous new designs from the mind of George Anthony Devolder Kitara Ravache Zabrovsky Santos!

Anagrams can sometimes be instructive. If such a patriot/traitor coin were ever minted, it likely would be the last of this republic and the first of a decent into hell. The executive who signed the legislation would likely oversee all future designs for the series until his death. At that time a son or daughter of the executive’s choosing would assume such responsibilities.

Coins would be required to have the following inscriptions: “In Our God You Believe”, “6MWE”, “Blood and Soil” and “You Will Not Replace Us!” The obverse would have a rendering of the dear leader and the reverse would feature heroes and heroic themes of the state. Ashli Babbit, Enrique Tarrio, Stewart Rhodes, Steve Bannon and Roger Stone would look resplendent in gold, wouldn’t they? And let’s not forget famous phrases like “I alone can fix it”, “Frankly, we did win this election”, and “Such a nasty woman.” It would be a new age of epic coinage, wouldn’t it?

Oh, I have the feeling you know I was well aware of that, REB. By the way, did you know that the word patriot, if all you do is switch the “p” for another “r”, is an anagram for traitor, which is what the rabble that invaded the Capitol Building all were. As far the series of dates you listed, are you predicting successive repeats of that kind of domestic terrorism from here on out?

Uh … <cough> … I have a hunch that’s NOT the type of “Patriot” he was thinking of for that day. Would be interesting to note the date on the coin: 2020-2024, 2025, 2026, 2027, 2928, 2029, 2030 …

Antonio,
It looks like you’re the one that’s getting all the popular acclaim.

How about that. You suggested the January 6 Patriot Coin, Dazed and Coinfused, and now here we have a united Congress bestowing the Congressional Gold Medal on the Capitol and D.C. Police who did their utmost patriotic best to push back a mob of dangerous insurrectionists. What a great call on your part!

That’s a sensational idea, Domenic. Now if we can just get the Mint on board. Not that this should be a problem since they are always so ready and willing to listen to our ideas and suggestions and to act upon them without delay or fail. Ah, the waking dream life of a collector is so blissful.
