“Thomas Jefferson” (1743-1826) is the third sculpt in the “POTUS” series. On the face is inscribed one of Jefferson’s most provocative quotes, “I prefer dangerous freedom to peaceful slavery”.
Chris Duane’s reference to the importance of this quote in his own life is very revealing. He states, “This one strike is more important to me than all of the ones in this series. There are many reasons that this coin will always be my favorite. First of all, Thomas Jefferson is one of my favorite presidents, but,
more importantly, this quote gave me courage to strike out on my own and live my life on my own terms.
I hope you too prefer dangerous freedom over peaceful slavery.
