I LOVE the 3 Cent Silver Series. The Coin is so small, but significant! It has a nice design on it and I just have a thing for Trimes. I also like Barber Quarters+Halves and a variety of other Coins. Good Job on the 7070 Moe.

That two cent piece has a lot of character on its own, but it will have good company in the 7070!

The last 7070 gold coin arrived today:

1908 St Gaudens (no Motto)












1841 Seated Liberty Dollar (to take the place of the counterfeit 1846 previously in there!)









7070 complete!

That is a BEAUTIFUL No motto Saint Gaudens Moe! I have an 08 no motto too, yours is definitely nicer. I'd guess MS-63 due to the hits on the obverse devices, but it has better than 63 eye appeal imo with great luster and a warm color. Congrats!

Are you going to expand your gold set, or leave it as is?

The gold coins definitely get under your skin.

I (like you) wish the Dansco had extra slots for the Gold coins that it doesn't have. The $3 definitely needs to be part of the set. I also like the modern commemoratives. I haven't decided if I'm going to leave it alone or add the coins it's missing (like you did). I like that idea a lot!

BUT, right now, I got Capped Bust Half fever...

Very exciting Moe! I know you like purchasing your coins raw, but PLEASE buy your $3 gold certified. The $3 gold is THE most highly counterfeited US gold, and I lost well over $500 by inadvertantly purchasing a fake one several years ago.

Your collection is really growing!

Yes, Sir!


(Actually that is GREAT advice, particularly from someone who's been there! Thank you, my friend!)

Raw coins are usually cheaper, but when you factor in the loss due to even one counterfeit (Moe's getting angry!) it often doesn't pay.
