Done Deal

 

For 15 years I have been working on the sixteen coin set of New Orleans Liberty Head Half Eagles. I can recall finding each and ever coin. Today the Jazz Collection is complete and will never be upgraded. Ever coin has a story and every story is that makes this collection special to me.

Congrats! That is a lovely set of nicely matched coins. Additional kudos for the nicely done photography and documentation. I very much enjoyed viewing and reading about $5 New Orleans Mint Gold. PS- luv the 1847-O Eliasberg, a very nice centerpiece !! Wishing you much continued success. Rich

Fifteen years is quite a long time to dedicate to completing a set. That's almost a one coin per year average. I confess to being quite a bit less patient than that. Well done!
