Tyler N. Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Here are a few NEWPs I've neglected to post here over the past few months. I have a few more that I didn't have photographed. Maybe I'll post them sometime in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wdrob Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Tyler that is a good looking collection of new pickups. I really like that 42, even though the WLH is not my favorite series by far. That 1853 runs a close second for me. (thumbs u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coinman_23885 Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Tyler, I like all of the coins you posted, but the 1947 WLH really stands out! (thumbs u I can't wait to see your short set when you are done with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brg5658 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 I know this is a darkside coin (sorry), but I thought many of you US collectors may appreciate this design. This matte proof France 1 Franc coin depicts the famous "Sower" design of Louis-Oscar Roty. That name may be foreign (literally) to many of you, but you would likely recognize one of his students' names in Victor David Brenner (of Lincoln Cent design fame). You may also notice the similarities of this coin to the later USA Walking Liberty Half Dollar...and those similarities are thought to be less than coincidence (see Roger Burdette's Renaissance of American Coinage, 1916-1921, page 36 for more information). I never thought I'd find a nice proof example of this design, but I'm giddy to add this one to my collection. Cheers, Brandon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the design and find it more aesthetic than much of our (i.e. U.S.) 20th century coinage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elbesaar Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 (edited) Brandon, I also love the 1898 French Franc. Classic design. I just added this to my Grandmother's Birth Year set ... It matches the Dime very well.... ( the larger images are too big, I need to go to Photobucket to add them here. ) Edited March 12, 2015 by Elbesaar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wdrob Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Although this is bullion and not really a coin I thought I would post it anyway. I did some silver for gold trading yesterday and this 1/2 oz AGE was one of the coins. I thought it had pretty nice toning for gold. II hope it is real. Lot of nice coins above mine but I sure do like that Seated Liberty Quarter. I got one coming in that I hope will be photogenic. Actually two.
