I've been furnishing mine to a friend that sells them on his Facebook coin site. They sell very very well, even the common ones. And there are NO 1859's that have a full vine.

As of today I have 234 Different Die Pairs out of 253, and a few extras 19 to go but getting very hard to find the remaining Die Pairs.

It's good to see a few more responses to the poll added. I know some collectors wonder why anyone would want 253 coins of the same date in their collection. (The poll only went to 248, but 5 more die pairs have been discovered since the poll began.) I admit I used to wonder that myself until I began to study the differences in the coins and was fascinated by all the things that can affect dies (and the coins they strike) during the minting process. I would encourage collectors to get about half a dozen VF or better 1859's and attribute them with the Haxby catalog. You never know, you might find a new one that's not listed yet. I expect there are still at least 15 or 20 more scarce die pairs out there somewhere waiting to be found. Happy hunting!!
