So then that would be a "Date" set. Are you going with all slabbed coins?

Yes, I'll probably be going with all slabbed coins. I'll try to have all the dates in Uncirculated condition.

Nice. There are plastic pages that fit a 3 ringed binder that accept slabs.

Got 113 Mercury dimes this past weekend. It was fun sorting them out. Now I just need to get a Dansco album. Starting a new series has been a long time coming.

What the......? Are you kidding me?

That is...... sensational. I'm thinking the price was too. Goodness gracious. Congratulations, sir. You'll be a hard act to follow.

It's a one-dollar pattern coin. Very expensive and rare.

Wow. Congratulations on your purchase. Definitely something different!

Dollar pattern - most impressive, not the sort of thing we see here very often. Congrats!

Here's a good write-up. The coin is an alloy of silver, gold and copper.

http://rickspedigreecoins.blogspot....ns-1879.html


I've wondered if this coin is a candidate for breakout and conservation with NGC. That would possibly restore some original color and luster, but as with most things... it is likely best to leave it as-is. It's currently in an old green holder from PCGS.

Opinions welcome...
