From searching the Heritage Auctions looks like 2009 was the last time they auctioned one. PG

Very nice set, may I ask how long it took you to complete and how you found them (coin show, dealers, online)?

The Charlotte and Dahlonega were bought and/or traded for offline. Total time to put the set together was around four months, give or take. Oddly, the hardest hole to fill was the New Orleans Mint with Motto. The coin was only minted for three years with 1893 seeing the most mintage. 1892 had a mintage of only 10K, while the 1893 had a mintage figure of 110K and 1894 had 16.6K. PG |
