Cool pattern half dollar Andrew!

Here is a recent purchase of mine. Didn't have one of these previously so I took the opportunity when it came.

I need to add a pattern to my collection but there are so many and they are all so very expensive.

These coins are just beautiful works of art. I am so impressed with them not as valuable collector items, but as stand alone objects that tell a story in gold or silver. This is a hobby that will never die as long as such gorgeous things exist.

I see why people collect gold coins after seeing the 1901 $5 coin. If someone dug that coin up 1000 years from now they would think it beautiful.

Wow, Aces, that's impressive. Very tough date in higher MS grades. Grats!

That 1899 looks like DMPL from photo. That must have set you back. I notice the coins has a low mintage and wonder why 1895-0, 95-S, and 93-0 which have higher mintage cost so much more in all conditions , especially in higher grades? What is the low down on this fact? Every picture and coin tells a story. Very nice coin, by the way.

Thank you both!

Terry: From what I understand (or have heard) these were saved from the day they were minted because of the low mintage, so a lot of MS specimens exist. At least that's what I've heard.

These came from my dad with the stipulation that I never sell them and keep them stashed away. Yes, that's a Morgan dollar copy silver round by the Prospector rounds. Pretty nice gift I think.
