Here we go!! Another wonderful "Days of..." thread, this time: The 55 Days of New Orleans minted US coins!    The history of the US Mint at New Orleans Louisiana is a fascinating part of US numismatics. The mint minted 3 Cents, Half Dimes, Dimes, Quarters, Half Dollars, Dollars, Gold Dollars, Gold Quarter Eagles (2.5 Dollars), Gold Half Eagles (5 Dollars), Gold Eagles (10 Dollars) and Gold Double Eagles (20 Dollars). How does this thread work? First examine your collection and find all the O marked coins. Then make sure you have great pictures of all of them!! Then post those pictures according to the schedule listed here. And then admire everyone else's wonderful collections while they admire yours!! Schedule of Posting:
