The United States Mint makes the money we use. The Mint has shown famous people, places, and events on coins.
This nickel celebrates the Louisiana Purchase. The Louisiana Purchase happened in 1803. It made the United States twice as big.
Soon, the U.S. Mint is going to make new coins. They are going to put the famous women on quarters.
What Do You Think? Imagine you could make a coin with someone on it. Who would you put on it? Why?
