<p>[QUOTE=&quot;physics-fan3.14, post: 3311596, member: 19165&quot;]For most of the US coinage life, most of the series were aligned with each other. I tend to divide US coinage history along those series lines, except where some other major occurrence took place. </p><p><br /></p><p>1836 - steam press took over, and was also when the Seated coinage started to replace Bust</p><p>1873 - a lot of happenings this year re-defined our coinage system</p><p>1907-1916 - many new series overhauled the aesthetics of our coinage. This one isn&#039;t as clear cut year-wise, but this &quot;Renaissance&quot; period is more of a gradual transition</p><p>1933 - end of gold is end of an era</p><p>1964 - end of silver is end of an era and the beginning of the Modern</p><p><br /></p><p>You may also argue that 1999 is a transition to a new era, with the advent of the State Quarters. It sort of changed the entire perspective of the mint, and the country, regarding (non?)circulating coinage.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
