Got two items, first is the final type for my set of Encased Cents, needed the Indian and the second is a set of old Colonial times coppers that just may have circulated during the early 18th Century. The Irish half penny was generally accepted even tho it had the notorious picture of the American's enemy, King George III, the Louis XVI would at times be accepted as a US Large Cent.

I am working on a set of the various mints operating in Poland (and the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth) in the 16th century. It's almost possible to achieve this with a single denomination, the trojak (3 groschen, about the size of a U.S. nickel)) issued during the first decade or so of the reign of Sigismund III (1588-1599). I just won this 1589 trojak from the Poznan mint at auction. Like many Polish coins from the 16th century that come up for sale, this one has been cleaned, but I went for it anyhow for the sharp obverse detail. The king sports a full beard in 1589, but by a few years later just a goatee.

Couple of ebay scores (gotta love a bargain) 1997 Botanical Gardens set (matte nickel 25,000 mintage) $39.00   1998 Kennedy set (matte half 62,000 mintage) $34.50   1957 Franklin (some toning) Anacs PR68 $4.99  Grabbed an old partial type set folder for $92.50 (about $12 more than melt of the silver it contained. Most of the copper was roached but the silver fared well. Bad picture but pretty nice capped bust half was included.

Nice score on that early half! I'd say it pretty much made up for the price of the whole lot.
