OK, not low mint then.

 

Changed my collecting from Bust Halves to half cents. That let me buy an 1797 Lettered Edge low head half cent in VF-25 condition. A fair trade to get a rarity-4 coin.

 

I think this has a mintage of around 8,000 ...

 

Only a mintage of 5,000

 

Mintage of 1,790.

 

ME WANT!!!!!!

Seriously, that is an awsome design, and a good example

 

That is one of the finest Susan B. Anthony dollars I have ever seen. It actually has a silver look to it.

 

It is a silver proof.

 

They didn't make any silver Susan B. Anthony's

 

mine is not very impresive an 1851 O seated half dime. 860,000 minted

 

I get it would be my 1846 O seated liberty dollar



59,000 Minted

 

My apologies, Tyler G is correct. The clear S type II proof is not made from silver. It is so well minted that it looks like a silver proof.

 

Lets see - 1879 business strike shield nickel mintage about 25k. I also own 1793 wreath and 1799 large cents - both mintages in the lower 40k range. I used to own some proof shield nickels, but sold those off.

 

1832 Half Cent

154,000

 

Only 7,000 minted. I have two of these.

 

8000 minted

 

1892 proof SA shilling minted 45



Circulated 1902 SA Veld pond minted 986



SA 1932 proof 1/4 penny mintage of 12

 

It always strikes me odd that an artist would go through all the trouble to create such an intricate pair of dies...just to strike forty-eight (48) pieces. :scratch: I have to think the dies became damaged somehow...or otherwise unusable.

 

Glad you didn't call for US coins only. I have a gold half sovereign that was minted for the country of Gibraltar. In Krause's World Book of Coins through Google it says only 300 proofs were minted. A 1997 beauty!! I wanted to point out that these pics are the sellers, better than mine. :yes:
