1996 Olympic Silver Dollar Reverse Die

Hey gang!

I have had a few of these over the years. This is a reverse die used to strike the 1996 Olympic proof silver dollar reverse's. If people have never seen a die with a face on it... I highly recommend taking a look at one of these in person. I thought it was cool. ENJOY!

That's cool. I had the ones for the 99 penny but the mint ground down the actually impression area to nothingness; all I had was a piece of hardened steel. I ended up selling them to someone else as I thought it was useless without the image.

 

thats wicked cool

 

That must have been a while ago I'd be willing to pay multiples of that for one.

 

That looks cool, its still clear and clean.

 

It's probably in China by now.

Some time around 1878?

 

Matt:
That is the first certificate that I have seen, very nice.

I only have one, the $5 Torch Bearer, supposedly the key with only #4 pieces released.

There was an article in The Numismatist a few years ago on these.
