That is because she never had anything whatsoever to do with the portrait of Franklin D Roosevelt on the US dime. Like most black inventors, scientists, artists, etc, her achievements are largely fictional, fraudulent, or plaigarized. The portrait on the US dime is by John R. Sinnock, and resembles his previous works on Roosevelt, predating her works, so she copied from him, badly. He did not copy from her.
