Here are a few more Dahlonega gold pieces. This is the only Classic Head $2.50 coin. The people who deposited gold to be made into coins...
Here goes some of them. The 1849-D gold dollar is fairly common in MS-62. The look is often similar to this. Some of them were saved because they...
I vote genuine. Here is a certified Mint State example. [ATTACH]
Unfortunately slabbing takes away some or all of the edge from view. BTW, the mint put edge lettering on these pieces not to prevent people from...
I wish I could go to more local and regional shows. I'm looking for the the Lakeland, Florida Collectoramma next week.
1902-O was rare date before a few bags of them turned up in the government vaults in the early 1960s. The most famous one was the 1903-O which...
Three pieces I don't usually post ... [ATTACH] It's harder to get a really sharp 1795 Flowing Hair Dollar than you might think. Many varieties...
I have a Dahlonega coin type set, plus a few other pieces. Here are the two hardest pieces, at least in terms of price. The mintages are...

Yes, 1794 cents can have those three heads. The 1794 cents with the head of 1793 are by far the scarcest.
I have purchased quite a few coins from the owner.
You have a Head of '94 cent. As the name empiles, the Head of '95 cents have the head that was used on that date. This is a Head of 1795....
To me the most interesting 19th century mint marks were on the obverse, above the date. The mint system only did this in 1838 and '39. In 1840,...
I have own three 1794 large cents during my time as a collector. The first one had fairly nice obverse, but the reverse was virtually blank. It...
If you are that far along, you are almost done. The heart of the collection runs from 1866 to 1878. All the pieces in that date range are key and...
