StrikeOutXXX

One of my favorite links here: https://archive.org/details/RG104Sequence77Box7Folder7/page/n79/mode/1up Includes this - it's from 1973, but the same sentiment was in earlier letters from the mint I don't seem to have bookmarked unfortunately. When I first saw the thread, I told myself for sure Roger would post some letters from NARA There are a lot of other interesting topics in the pages of that link too.

Yea Roger - The 1796 coin is a bit early for most women adjusters - but maybe Sarah Waldrake or Rachel Summers worked on it as they started in 1795. Males/Females - I still think in my mind "give me that gold my pretty" (Or silver if that's the case)

The obverse of this coin has some remaining marks from filing that striking didn't obscure. It's funny - in my own mind, when I think of adjusters, I drift to a Wicked Witch of the West type scenario with the adjusting lady/ladies in their wicked voice saying - give me that gold my pretty and filing grains at a time.

1791 - 1794 Copper UK Halfpenny Conder Token. https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces17518.html

Judging by the auction catalog - with prices annotated - it's likely the outcome was they were sold. https://archive.org/details/catalogueofvalua00lowl_2/mode/2up?q=june+28+1887+auction

Been a long time since I've updated this, I mostly keep it up to date ATS - but here is the current census (38 known) and new this week is a new Top Pop - an NGC AU55!!. Few things I need: I have pictures for all but one coin if anyone owns/knows the owner if I could get pics of: coin 22 (PCGS VG8) currently in the jwinter(2) registry set Info on the recently graded NGC AU55 - Story how it was found/where it came from - Would like some close-up pictures of the motto if possible. Below is the census as they are found (1-38), then sorted by condition census, then sales history by price as well as sales history chronologically. Still waiting for the first Uncirculated example, although an AU55 is still pretty exciting! ========================= *** Current Census *** ============================== Please let me know if you know of any changes or additional pieces 1) PCGS VF-20 (CAC) (From ANACS VF-20) Discovery piece (StrikeOutXXX / Jeff Sam) > Leo Frese > Great Collections (8/16 - $3,960 (3600 + 360)) (2/26/17 Great Collections - $4,290 (3900 + 390)) > jwinter Reg Set PCGS Cert: 545047.20/81388342 - ANACS Cert was: 4815681 Stage A 2) NGC AU Details - Environmental Damage - Confirmation piece - John Hodson Cert: 4270926-001 Stage A 3) PCGS VG-8 (From ANACS VG-8) - Bulk over the counter B&M Purchase (KearneyCC / Bjorn Bergstrom) > Leo Frese > Rich Uhrich > 9/7/2018 Heritage - $2,880 > Larry Martin Registry Set Cert: 545047.08/32476123 Stage A 4) PCGS XF-40 (From ANACS EF-40)- small show Portland, OR (Dealer folder unattributed) - (jtlee321/Justin) > Leo Frese > ? > 2/14/16 - Great Collections ($9,075 ($8,250 + $825)) - 8/22/18 ANA S&B = $7,800 Cert: 545047.40/25606326 (Regraded from PCGS XF-40 Cert: 545047.40/29996937) Stage B 5) NGC - G6 - Owner Unknown - In 2021, Littleton Coin Company has one of the two NGC G6 (coin 5 or 6) listed for sale for $2,575 Cert: 3837672-003 Stage B 6) NGC G6 - Owner Unknown - In 2021, Littleton Coin Company has one of the two NGC G6 (coin 5 or 6) listed for sale for $2,575 Cert: 3837672-004 Stage A 7) NGC G4 - Owner Unknown - Littleton Coin Company had this for sale in 2021 Cert: 3837672-005 Stage B 8) PCGS XF-45 - Shown to Rick Snow in Baltimore 7/15 - Rick acquired 7/16 > Dimeman 10/2016 Cert: 545047.45/81423166 Stage A 9) AG Details - Damaged - Roll searching, Alan Davis -Cointalk forums RAW Stage A 10) Good - 90% Merc bag find - Natchez14 - (NGC Message Boards) RAW Stage B 11) VG - 3/18/16 auction listed on eBay raw - owner unknown (seller: flcoins - $2,250) RAW Stage A 12) PCGS AG-3 - Owner Unknown > (eBay seller: cbcoins03) Cert: 545047.03/80661866 - 6/18/20 - Sold for $1,224 Stacks & Bowers ($1,020 + $204 BP) Stage B 13) NGC AG-3 - (Consigned to eBay seller: boyernumismatics) Was a dealer inventory roll find. > Sold for undisclosed 4-figure amount 5/2017. $1,399.99 - eBay 11/21/17 Cert: 2687209-003 Stage A 14) PCGS - GENUINE EdgeDmg - F Details > (eBay seller: fresebrothers) Cert: 545047.98/80510296 > 10/9/18 on eBay again seller: acoinshop > 3/2019 sold to InGodWeTrustCoins Stage B 15) PCGS G4 (CAC) (Pop reports, owner unknown) - 8/22/19 eBay BIn - $2,750 (westcoastcoinsoregon) Cert: 545047.04/81179058 Stage A 16) NGC AG-3 - (eBay seller: dwp23/Forum Member CLC2010) - Local Show Junk Bin (7/7/16 - eBay $816.66 + .99 Ship) Cert: 4231740-003 Stage A 17) PCGS FR-2 (CAC) - Dennis Tarrant (Numisma) & Victor Romero - Bag Searching > GreatCollections (9/4/16 - GC $606.83 ($551.66 + $55.17)) Cert: 545047.02/81692204 > 1/2/18 Sold by Gerry Fortin via www.seateddimevarieties.com for $1,475 Stage A 18) PCGS VG-10 Sandman70gt - older unnoticed eBay set purchase Cert: 545047.10/81866568 Stage B 19) PCGS - GENUINE - Cleaning - AG Details (Junk silver find - eBay 10/23/16 sold without DDO in auction for $203.53) Cert: 545047.92/81862971 > Resold on eBay with proper listing - $725.00 eBay 3/6/17 Stage B 20) NGC VG-10 - Owner Unknown Cert: 4334552-004 Stage A 21) NGC AG-3 - (eBay seller: reputablediamondbuyers) - Sold 11/15/17 for "Best Offer Accepted" of $770 + $2.66 Shipping - 12/24/17 - Sold through ARSave Collectables Website www.arsave.com for $2,195 Cert: 2713742-003 Stage A 22) PCGS VG-8 - New to pop report 7/2017 - jwinter(2) Registry Set Cert: 545047.08/84200019 Stage Unknown (I need pictures of this one) 23) NGC AG-3 - Greg Allen Coins, LLC - 90% bag searching - Sold eBay 8/24/18 $1,649.99 Buy It Now Cert: 4355126-010 Stage A 24) PCGS AG-3 - eBay Seller: kearneycc - 90% bag searching - sold $1,599.99 eBay 10/27/17 BIN Cert: 545047.03/34199108 Stage A 25) PCGS AG-3 - Forum member jdimmick found in bag of mercs - sold $1,977.00 eBay 7/18/18 Cert: 545047.03/35756830 Stage A 26) NGC AG-3 - r/coins Reddit User wordisborn reported it 4/4/19 (NGC Cert 8/19) - eBay 8/19/19 $1,807.50 ($1,799 + 8.50 Shipping) Cert: 4740706-002 Stage B 27) PCGS F-12 - New to census May, 2019.

Yikes! And I thought all the hangings in the US/Colonies in the 1700's/early 1800's for counterfeiting was rough. They still have an execution cauldron on display in the Netherlands if that's your idea of sightseeing!

I suppose in today's world, resignation letters like those would be all over the Internet and social media, but back then to be in newspapers - and close to the date of resignation (9/18 & 9/21) - makes you wonder if Pollock provided the newspapers with a copy. He didn't appear to be a "Happy Camper". https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83025925/1866-09-18/ed-1/seq-5/#date1=1866&sort=date&rows=20&words=James+Pollock&searchType=basic&sequence=0&index=8&state=&date2=1867&proxtext=James+Pollock&y=13&x=11&dateFilterType=yearRange&page=5 and https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn84038112/1866-09-21/ed-1/seq-2/#date1=1866&sort=date&rows=20&words=James+Pollock&searchType=basic&sequence=0&index=11&state=&date2=1867&proxtext=James+Pollock&y=13&x=11&dateFilterType=yearRange&page=5

I had one of his letters bookmarked when he offered the 1826 Quarter Eagle. Seems he sold the Mint an 1815 Half Eagle previously as well.

At one point in the first year or so, I updated a thread in 4 of the bigger coin forums. Today, mostly the post ATS you linked. When this started, I figured after a few years, there would be hundreds of them known, and keeping a census wouldn't be possible as they would be popping up too frequently. At just over 6 years now, my census has 34 unique examples, with a likely 35th new to the pop reports I need to chase down details on. So far, the sales are spread out enough that I can keep up on sales history too with frequent searching, and a lot of help/messages from other forum members. I thought about doing a downloadable PDF with pictures of all the coins (I have pics of 33 of the 34) and history and such and update that or at one point was going to register 1919DDODIME.com but again... I figured after a year or two, it would be so big it would be impossible to keep up with. Fast forward 6 years and it could have been done in hindsight, just never did. Hopefully the Cherrypicker's Guide comes out this year with it featured (June 15th 2021 according to Amazon) and that will jump-start the searching and finding enough where keeping a census is somewhat impractical. Time will tell.

I found most of the 31 with some Googling. Most were currency, and given most of the dates, even the coin related ones weren't US Coinage: Brock, Nicholas: 18 years old.

Oops - 31 on the list (29 names, 2 unknowns). Let's see how this formats. Would make an interesting book researching all the death penalties for counterfeiting.

The Boston Numismatic Society was a frequent requestor of patterns as well. I saw more in the digitized archives, but only have a few specific letters bookmarked. Jan 1877 letter requesting to know if more patterns are available since the Trade Dollars, cites a Mint Regulation (Rule 3)? https://archive.org/details/RG104Entry1Box106GeneralCorrespondenceOctober1876toJanuary1877/page/n753/mode/2up Dec 1877 letter requesting a set of of patterns https://archive.org/details/RG104Entry1Box110GeneralCorrespondenceDecember1877toFebruary1878/page/n73/mode/2up January 1878 letter requesting pattern pieces. Letter references Mint Regulations received Sept 1874 "The Superintendent will furnish without charge on application therefor a pattern piece to any incorporated numismatic society in the United States. In such case if the pattern is in gold or silver, the value of the metal will be required" (Could this be Rule #3 referred to in the Jan 1877 letter?) So... were copper patterns free since it said gold or silver the value will be required? https://archive.org/details/RG104Entry1Box110GeneralCorrespondenceDecember1877toFebruary1878/page/n411/mode/2up According to this December 27, 2015 eSylum article, the club's cabinet was donated to the Boston Museum of Fine Arts. https://www.coinbooks.org/esylum_v18n52a12.html In the late 1880s, membership in the BNS lagged, due in part to the aging of its members. Meetings became less frequent and, in the latter part of the century, the society donated $300 and its impressive cabinet of numismatic items to the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, and another $300 and its library to the Boston Public Library. Appleton’s death in 1903 left the BNS with but four of its original members. I searched the Boston Museum of Fine Arts collection - below is link just to Numismatics between 1874 and 1900. Sadly, most don't have pictures, and I found nothing with a provenance of Boston Numismatic Society. There are a lot of interesting coins in their collection that do have images (although not BNS ones). https://collections.mfa.org/search/Objects/beginDate%3A1874%3Bclassifications%3ANumismatics%3BendDate%3A1900/*
