At least the depiction on yours is what one would expect on a coin meant to commemorate him. The missile dick might be creepy, I didn't design it, you'd have to take it up with the pro trump silver shield guys.
I used to collect US coins. A lot of interesting history and a story of our currency's continual devaluation. I had some large cents from 1817 and 1834. They're huge. Wouldn't carry too many of them if a penny as worthless back then. We used to have half cent pieces too. Of course, in 1965 all silver was removed from coins apart from the 40% in half dollars that persisted for a few more years. I actually hang onto copper pennies. In 1982 they changed from 95% copper to copper plated zinc. Any penny 1981 and older is worth roughly double it's face value in copper. Some 1982s are copper, some aren't. When I find one, I give it the flip test. Spin it in the air from a thumb flick. Copper will "ring" while it is spinning, zinc makes a dull thunk sound
