... that the creator of the Cincinnati Musical Center half dollar (reverse pictured) was characterised as "the greatest pirate of all"?

ALT1:... that the "goddess of music" on the Cincinnati Musical Center half dollar (pictured) has been described as having "the same appeal of a dancer with cramps"?
ALT2:... that the Cincinnati Musical Center half dollar (reverse pictured) "was made for pure profit and greed" yet still minted by the United States Mint?

ALT3 ... that though the Cincinnati Musical Center half dollar (1936) honors the 50th anniversary of that city as a center of music, nothing of musical significance happened there in 1886?--Wehwalt (talk) 22:02, 21 January 2015 (UTC)

Possibly RHM22 may have ideas, as he wrote the article on the sculptor.--Wehwalt (talk) 22:03, 21 January 2015 (UTC)

Interesting, comprehensive, well-written. Photo is PD, all hooks have refs. Refs are offline so cannot read the actual source. Article plenty long enough and new. All hooks have a ref but I personally prefer ALT1. HalfGig talk 23:47, 21 January 2015 (UTC)
