For 1 cent's anyway, I mean, there are 6 "varieties"/"types"! 2 Indian Heads and 4 Lincolns. I don't think any other year has that many varieties of a single denomination?
6 1938 Nickels if you want to count the D/S Buffalo. 1939 Jeffersons have 6 business strike varieties 8 counting proofs. 2004 & 2005 Westward Nickels. Presidential Dollars and State Quarters all come to mind.
1913 was a little crazy for nickel collectors. You needed to purchase a 1913 V-nickel and all the 1913 PD & S type 1 and type 2 buffalos. Very best regards, collect89 P.S. Almost forgot to mention the different proof and MS examples the collector would need to procure to complete his 1913 nickel set.
The 1960-D has close to 200 RPM Varieties alone not to mention the Doubled Die Varieties and the Large and Small Dates! Frank
1878 dollars. 187878, 78cc, and 78S trade dollar, 78 8 tail feather, 7/8 tailfeather, 7 tail feather, 78cc, and 78 S Morgan dollars, and 1878 gold dollar. That's nine different types of dollar that year.
Maybe 11 different dollars 11 if you count the gold dollar proof & the Morgan dollar proof in addition to the 78 Trade dollar proof & all the mint state examples. Very best regards, collect89
total of 20 different quarters this year? Least we don't forget about the quarters of 2008. You have five D mint, five P mint, five clad S mint and five silver S mint. That is a total of 20 right? Very best regards, collect89
Magman, Okay but you noted "varieties/types" so I went with the Varieties! In actuallity, there are 3 1909 Indian Head Cents and 6 Lincoln Cents when you include the Proofs. Frank
Hello Nickelman, I didn't know that you could buy anything other than the U08 Mint Set containing the D & P quarters. I've got something to learn about satin finish quarters so maybe you can tell me more about them. How about a new poll- Who purchased all 30 state quarters this year? Who has 5?.....Who has 0? Very best regards, collect89
I may be mistaken but I believe all the coins in the U08 mint set are Satin Finish! getting business strike coins since the mint started the Satin Finish in 2005 has been the difficult part.
Just looked on the Mint wed site. Here is what is written under the U08 set. "Uncirculated coins are struck on special presses using greater force than circulating coins, producing a sharp, intricately detailed image, and feature the satin finish introduced in 2005. The coins are sealed in a blister and displayed in a folder. One folder contains coins bearing the “P” mint mark and the other contains coins bearing the “D” mint mark." So if you only have the mint sets and are collecting State quarters there are a lot of business strikes that have to be obtained to complete the sets!
