section "Preparation", last paragraph: "The Fine Arts Commission ... Missouri commission ... Fine Arts Commission ... Commission members had suggested several changes", those "Commission members" belong to which one? My guest is Missouri commission because designer was hired by the other so asuming their request or suggestion will be adapted into design? But I'm only guessing, need to be clarify here I think.--Jarodalien (talk) 02:47, 11 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Same paragraph: "...the Medallic Art Company produced hubs from which working dies to produce the coins could be made", is there a "plastic model" behind the word "from"?--Jarodalien (talk) 02:58, 11 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
It would be a good improvement for the article to have an image of the 2★4 version, especially since a significant amount of the article text is devoted to it, though the process for obtaining clearance seems daunting. Thanks, 66.30.12.132 (talk) 12:13, 8 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
First paragraph of "Design". You do not need a source in the lead section, which is a summary of the article, if it is sourced in the article body.--Wehwalt (talk) 23:47, 8 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Though MOS:LEADCITE suggests that controversial statements that are likely to be challenged are candidates for having a lead citation. (The interpretation was challenged twice on its featured article day, once in an edit and once here.) 66.30.12.132 (talk) 14:07, 9 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I've modified a bit. The report of the Director of the Mint, who had to approve the design, is at least somewhat authoritative.--Wehwalt (talk) 18:07, 10 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
How about changing the wording from "may have been intended to symbolize" to "has been interpreted as symbolizing", which sounds less like speculation itself while acknowledging that others have speculated as such. - ZLEAT\C21:44, 10 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
"The Missouri Centennial half dollar, which shows Boone on either side, is one of the few coins in United States numismatic history to have the same individual depicted on both sides" How is that counted? By denomination? By years a design was minted? By numbers of coins minted? Because, every United States one cent coin from 1959 to 2008 depicted the same individual on both sides. --User:Khajidha (talk) (contributions) 19:15, 10 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Granted, though Lincoln is not recognizable on the reverse, so the Lincoln cent as struck during that half-century would be one more. The text does not say it is a complete list.--Wehwalt (talk) 19:19, 10 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Different types of coins. It is not possible to do a complete list, because that would mean constant updating. For example, the version of the Washington quarter struck last year had Washington on both sides.--Wehwalt (talk) 15:51, 16 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
