While white people had previously been used as models for most American coins, famed artist James Earle Fraser went against tradition by using three actual American Indians as models for his creation. For the buffalo on the other side, since buffalo no longer wandered about the great grasslands, Fraser was forced to sketch an aging buffalo from New York City's Central Park Zoo. Two years later, in 1915, this animal was sold for $100 and killed for meat, a hide, and a wall decoration made from its horns. Uncle Sam Fourteen-year-old Sam Wilson ran away from home to join his father and older brothers in the fight to liberate the American colonies from the British during the American Revolution.
此前一直是白人被用作美國鎳幣上的模特,而著名的藝術(shù)家詹姆斯?厄爾?弗雷澤卻反傳統(tǒng)而行之,起用了三名真正的美洲印第安人作為自己創(chuàng)作的原型。 由于大草原上不再有野牛漫步,弗雷澤為了鎳幣另一面上的野牛,只好到紐約中央公園的動物園里素描一只老野牛。兩年后,即1915年,此牛以100美元的價格售出,然后被宰殺取肉、剝皮,牛角制成了墻上的裝飾品。 山姆大叔 美國獨立戰(zhàn)爭時期,14歲的山姆?威爾遜離家出走,加入父親和哥哥們的行列,為美國殖民地獨立于英國而戰(zhàn)。
