nod2003 Pillar of the Community United States 3294 Posts	Posted 04/30/2009 3:46 pm What year had the most coin types (not including commems) made, before 1999 when they started doing the State Quarters? Was it 1875? Report this Post to the Staff

cownas22 Pillar of the Community United States 1055 Posts	Posted 04/30/2009 4:08 pm I dont know for sure but I would go with 1866 with the 2 cent, 3 cent (nickel and silver) Half Dime Shield nickel, ect... including the gold coins. I counted 16 different coins minted in that year...It is my guess, I'm sure someone here will actually know. Report this Post to the Staff
Elimist Pillar of the Community United States 632 Posts	Posted 04/30/2009 4:52 pm I remember somebody on here had a 1870 proof coin collection he put together consisting of ten different coins and I thought that was a lot, and that set didn't include any gold. As far as I can tell, these are all the different coins made in 1870. Indian Head cent Two Cent Piece Three Cent Silver Three Cent Nickel Half Dime Shield nickel dime quarter half dollar dollar one dollar gold quarter eagle three dollar gold half eagle eagle double eagle That comes to 17 different circulating issues produced by the mint for that year.

Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 05/02/2009 7:34 pm Try 1873 1 cent 2 cent 3 cent silver 3 cent nickel Half Dime no arrows Half Dime with arrows Shield nickel dime no arrows dime wih arrows quarter dollar no arrows quarter dollar arrows and rays half dollar no arrows half dollar with arrows and rays Stndard silver dollar Trade dollar gold dollar quarter eagle three dollar gold half eagle eagle double eagle That's 21. If you include open and closed 3's as different types (which I wouldn't) I think you can add about 8 more. A of course that's just types. If you went for date and mint combination's the nmber takes another big jump. Edited by Conder101 05/02/2009 7:36 pm Report this Post to the Staff
