MikeKing Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 That is a super Washington cent, Mike. Doesn't that have the edged lettering? unlike the Washington Liberty and Security pennies, which have edge lettering, I can't find reference to edge lettering on the Washington Small Eagle (which this one is) or the Large Eagle Pennies.

texasrichard Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 (edited) robec1347 - Great Looking Cents and Pics Leeg- Another great looking cent and the Pilgrim looks like a good shot at a 5 Mikeking - 1791 !!! If only it could talk what stories it might tell Jtryka - A roll of eagles a day (or even a month) will make your retirement a lot less stressfull when the time comes. Numismatist - Very colorful Commen. What service did the grading? Nice coins all Edited April 6, 2007 by texasrichard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newmismatist Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 Numismatist - Very colorful Commen. What service did the grading? Nice coins all NGC walk through at FUN - grade was MS66* - It was sold a few days later and the buyer is now using it as his avatar across the street.

jtryka Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 Thanks Texasrichard, though typically I only buy a roll a year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsshog40 Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 Well I know these aren't real and I could never afford the originals so I bought this tribute set of silver bullion morgans. It has a copy of the 1889-CC, 1893-S, 1893-O, 1895-P, and 1878-P. All proof finish anyway. I thought they were nice to have. I gave $36.50 (includes s&h).

They had a starting of 12.95, no one bid until the last minute, but I had a max of $30. Got'em for that plus 6.50 s&h. Bought them wed and just them today. I know that they are on the National Collectors Mint, they distribute them, but they are 49.95 there. I'll take a good pic of one here in a few and show you waht they look like close-up.

SkyMan Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 Hey, for $36.50 that is a major score. If they look nice in hand keep 'em. If they don't, flip 'em for silver content at a local coin shop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsshog40 Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 I took a some quick pics of the coins I got in today. One is the tribute morgan and the others are 2007 S.E. proof and a 1921D Moragn I got on ebay for $21.00. It sure has some major die cracks circling this thing.

I hate to burst your bubble, but they are not one ounce silver each. They are copper-nickel clad, the same material that is used to make our debased coinage, however, each is coated with 51.7mg 0.999 silver. Therefore, the five pieces contain a total of 258.5mg 0.999 silver. To look at it another way, these contain a combined 0.0083 troy oz silver. At $36.50 for the group, you are receiving 11 cents of silver and $36.39 of tribute round, packaging and shipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom, then I'm presuming that this certificate that says "Struck in 100Mil. .999 Silver Clad Base" is actually meaning what you're saying? Oh, well, I liked them anyway, that's why I bought them. The silver idea was nice, but I actually got them for the designs. thanks Tom! Hey Chad, may not be worth the money to you if you were looking at the silver end of it.

Yes, the certificate is telling you that they are plated in an extremely thin layer of silver over a clad base. Here is the NCM web page for details.

bsshog40 Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 I read it Tom, just didn't really pay attention to what it was saying. As I stated, I would've bought them anyway.
