Wow!

I received two replies, and it was close. These questions were fun but difficult.

With 4/4 correct answers, the winner is @Zurie.

@SpeedDemonND answered 3/4 correctly.

The differentiating question was #1.

Once @Zurie provides the ok, I will post his answers!

Thank you for participating and I look forward to learning more and hopefully sharing knowledge here!

Congrats, Zurie. I look forward to seeing your answers. But shantiom seems to be indicating I missed a question while you answered all of them correctly, so I'm curious if this is indeed the case, since all I see are the 4 questions listed and he said you answered 5 correctly.

My bad--there were only 4 questions. @SpeedDemonND missed the first one. Apologies for the confusion!

ANSWERS:

1. 1816 to 1820 Coronet Head large cents, from the discovery of the Randall Hoard in the late 1860's.

2. The Granite Lady Hoard, named after the second US Mint in San Francisco, which survived the San Francisco earthquake and subsequent fires. A cache of Type 1 Double Eagles from 1850 to 1866 was later found there, including the 1861-S Paquet reverse Double Eagles, and some Type 2 Liberty Double Eagles from the early 1870's were also part of the hoard.

3. Copper gallon jugs were found in 1934 by 2 teenagers in Baltimore containing 3558 gold coins.

4. Little Bohemia roadhouse, near Mercer, WI, where John Dillinger buried a suitcase full of cash.
