Is this supposed to be for a coin or a tombstone?

Perhaps reduce denominations to bespoke sizes — but just make them smaller [2].

[2] I am among the few people who actively uses half dollar coins — they're simply too bulky for most people (I'm a fatguy so I've got enough pocketspace).
Shifting a decimal place works for me. Prices when I grew up up in the 60s & 70s were a fraction of today's. Penny candy WAS REAL! And the "five & dime" had stuff for, well, nickels & dimes. Not a lot, but some things. Nowadays it's dollar stores (a blight on the landscape) - their prevalence tells ya sumthin'bout the disposable income situation of many, many citizens.
Fortunately inflation is so high that these coins won't be worth much for very long. Like their obverse patron, won't be around forever.
¡¡ Happy 80th/250th !!
I've got my drill press ready, for a political art project.
