... ex the one gold coin made that year. With the arrival of the quarter this week... I'm done with 1818, unless I upgrade.

 

I wouldn't say that they match up well on condition but each is nice in it's own regard (my opinion). There were only 4 different denominations of coins minted in 1818 in the US (I think) including the 3 shown here and also the one gold piece (half eagle). I won't be acquiring the gold as they are fairly expensive pieces.

 

Anyway, this was fun to do and fairly easy. In fact it was a WAY WAY easier year to do that the 1853 set I put together. These coins came to me via: "doh", "JJ Teaparty", and "Rod Burress". Thanks for the nice coins.

 

Comments welcomed good or bad... I have thick skin ;)

Or move on to the 1808 and 1798 year sets. ;)

 

Congrats!

Love the cent, as you mentioned not really a matched set but each has a nice look.

 

Yes I agree it is an interesting little set. The thing about the cent is that it is a Randal hoard variety and therefore common in Mint State. The quarter and the half dollar are not hoard coins, and cost a bundle in Mint State.

 

Where's the $5 gold piece? :tonofbricks:

 

I've just being a jerk ... ;)
