Well Happy Anniversary @sonlarson ! 45 years is amazing.....

here's a couple of 1858's

A Canadian Ten Cent




and the only year they issued them, a Canadian Twenty Cent (sorry for the bad photo, I'd retake but I'm not sure where it is at the moment....)

 

Nice 20 cent coin. Here's mine:


Here is a pretty Vickie:

 

1857 Has Come!

 

1857 Netherlands Indies 1 cent (Perhaps I should 'clean' it a bit?)

 

Here is my only 1857 coin....

 

Russian Empire.
Poltina (50 kopeks) 1857.

 

Uruguay.

 

Prussia.

 

This one in in my "favorite coins" category. One of the first coins I purchased when I was working on completing my Dansco 7070. I had purchased another one but was unhappy with it. I took it back to the LCS I had purchased it from and traded up for this one. Dealer had graded as VF30 and I often wonder if I sent it in for slabbing how would it come back.

 

1857. The worn penny is a New Zealand token. They are kind of hard to find. New Zealand didn't have official coinage until the 1930s. also have a Prince Edward Island half penny in here.

 

1857 token Upper Canada (Ontario, Canada)

 

@sonlarson I was thinking about this some more, 45 years is about as long as I've been collecting coins!
I started collecting when I noticed a 1911 Lincoln Cent in my change when I was 7yrs old (I'm in Canada) and thought, 'hey that's kinda cool, I wonder what else I can find....' Started off with mostly Canadian & American coinage but World coins kept showing up and eventually took hold of my history/geographic mind.
I've been finding 'kinda cool' coins ever since.

 

France, 50 francs- 1857A

Q

 

USA - 1857 Flying Eagle Cent

 

It does not appear cleaned like so many do. VF35 IMO. Nice coin.
