I'm out on 1799 got 98 tho then nothing til 1795 with several good ones

 

Here's an 1800 half dime:





And here's an 1800 dollar:





I'm not sure there's a design difference!!!???
Just size.

Need someone else to come up with a 1799.
Next stop for me is 1798.

 

Very nice Kanga love them both I'm stuck until 1798 too both the large cent and dollar of 1799 are high on my want list

 

My 1798 is a Draped Bust cent, 2nd Hair.

The reason I have so many gaps is that my main collection is a type set so I only need one coin of each design, generally the most common variety.

I'm headed for the Baltimore Whitman show this coming weekend.
I'll go on Friday as usual.
Topping my list is to get one of the following three coins, probably in Fine:
-- Draped Bust, Small Eagle half dime, probably 1796
-- Draped Bust, Small Eagle dime, probably 1797
-- Draped Bust, Small Eagle dollar, several date choices

 

I'm a type collector too among other things that and bust dollars early large cents cc Morgan's and trade dollars are my main interests as well as any flowing hair and bust coinage my next is the exact same as yours then a bunch of 1795 coins I would say the top 3 on my list are a chain cent a pine tree shilling and any of the 3 small eagle dollars I've underbid all 3 years several times the last couple years and have kicked mysel for not going a bit stronger as far as my next thing to buy is gonna depend on how my business goes I've bought a lot lately and the next 3 months are often slow

 

I'll be around when you guys get down to the 300's.

 

Arrrrrrrrrrgh!!!!
We're blocked at 1799.

 

Too funny!

Here's an authentic example for 1815, so that hole is patched (1815 Canada Half Penny Token CH# LC54D2 Breton #994 ICCS MS-60):

 

Since it's been over a week since the 1800 coin was posted, I think it's fair enough to take a picture from the internet just for the sake of moving things along...

1799 Half Eagle.

Oooo, good.
And a VERY nice coin to get us restarted.

Here's my 1798:

 

And mine

 

Back another year.
Here's my 1797 entry (someone else will have to do 1796):

 

My 1797 is a weak strike on the reverse I've had it a long time maybe ill upgrade it eventually

 

I don't have a 1796 someone else will have to do that 1795 is where I can really shine though

 

NOT MINE of course , but wanted to pay homage to a fantastic coin

 

mainebill I will join you on the 1795 date, lets see those 1795's
here is my 1795 silver dollar and 1795 half dollar

 

Ok I have the same half isn't as nice tho that quarter is one of the prettiest coins I've ever seen!! 1795 half NGC vg-8

 

And my favorite coin I own!!
