Eichsfeldian coinage

Description

As the value of a Beaver is rather above that of ten dollars, Dee and her Nakama decided to divide it into one thousand mills instead of one hundred cents, denoted by a small m with a slash.

The reverse shows an oak leaf, as "Eichsfeldia" translates from German as "Oak field".

The obverses show:
* One half mill: The Phrygian cap, also knows as the liberty cap, traditionally worn by freed slaves
* One mill: Charles Darwin, naturalist
* Five mills: Harriet Tubman, abolitionist
* Ten mills: H. L. Mencken, journalist
* Twenty-five mills: Robert A. Heinlein, author
* Fifty Mills: Thomas Jefferson, politician
