coinman01 New Member United States 1 Posts	Posted 07/03/2011 11:22 pm I have had these 2 coins for several years and cant seem to find much if any information on these gold plated SBA's. The coins come in a cardboard like single fold case with american treasury mint papers along with registration numbers. They state "first-day-of-issue minting on july 2, 1979." I've searched the web only to find single coins without the papers I have with mine, and most are not gold plated. So who can tell me about these, and how many were produced? thank you Report this Post to the Staff

BuffaloBonehead Valued Member United States 333 Posts	Posted 07/04/2011 02:05 am I don't know anything about SBA collecting, but I'm willing to guess that these were plated by a private company and were sold at quite a profit. Sort of like how the State Quarters were plated in gold and sold on the TV shopping channels. Report this Post to the Staff

They can be a fun novelty though, so if you like them, enjoy them. Report this Post to the Staff
