    I am trying to compile a list of all the U.S. coins with ships on the reverse. So far, the only ones I can come up with are Commemorative coins and the state quarters for Virginia and Rhode Island. Does anyone know if I am missing any?

    Thanks!

    I know there are still some more. Can't remember the name of it but one has a pilgrim in a boat, holding a bible and his other hand upraised and there is an indian on the shore.

    Here is another one we missed because the ship is really small and on the obverse, but I don't how we could leave this beautiful design out.
