Correct, once the war ended the Mint immediately ordered planchets from Bolton. They arrived in December 1815 and they immediately began striking...
Better reference for specs on US coins is the Coin World Almanac
He is talking about the fact that on the 20 cent LIBERTY is in relief on the shield instead of incuse. There are other differences as well. If...
But the 50K enhanced Sac is the key to that set, the RP Kennedy will only be a semi-key for the President dollar set.
The 1804 class 1 dollar. I'm just not into gold, and the Class II and Class III dollars are just restrikes made to try and sell to collectors....
