Nominate Rear Admiral Grace Hopper to be on a US Quarter

[O2HeN2]

CLARIFICATION: SHE IS NOT REPLACING WASHINGTON. THIS WILL APPEAR ON THE "TAILS" SIDE OF THE QUARTER, IN A SIMILAR MANNER AS THE STATE COINS.

I've seen more than a few nerds go by in this conference, so would any of you be willing to indulge me, please help in nominating Read Admiral Grace Hopper (Ret) to appear on a US Quarter.

Grace Hopper was a pioneer in early computer development. If you're ever herd the term "bug" describing a problem, she's the origin of the phrase - she found a moth beat to death by a computer relay that was causing a computer to malfunction...

Basic information for the nomination:

Name: Rear Admiral Grace Hopper
Birth: December 9, 1906
Death: January 1, 1992
Field: Science, or Computer Science
Reason: This is up to you

What's wrong with George Washington?

[MrPrena]

Although Admiral was admirable, I prefer president on the money.

[USMC88-93]

Washington is the only choice.

[Jumpstart]

Washinton

I think it’s for part of a series of collectible coins, guys. Not replacing Washington, but maybe I’m missing the fine print of the conspiracy this time and they’re sneaking something by me?

Yhea, like the state quarters...

"...the Mint will issue circulating and numismatic quarter-dollar coins with reverse (tails) designs emblematic of the accomplishments and contributions of a prominent American woman beginning in January 2022."

"The obverse (heads) of coins in this program will continue to feature a likeness of George Washington designed in a manner to distinguish it from the current image."

I admire RADM Hopper but no way do I want to replace George Washington on any coins or currency. Instead, I propose she replace FDR on the dime. Permanently.

Not replacing George. Read the reply immediately above yours.

[MrPrena]

I am Guilty of TLDR.

I read your earlier clarification. I still say she should replace FDR.
