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.

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.

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).

I'd take them out of those soft flips if I were you!

They are already out of the flips, clanging around in an envelope full of random silver eagles!

I got these on Ebay chad. 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.

Hey, for $36.50 that is a major score. thumbsup2.gif If they look nice in hand keep 'em. If they don't, flip 'em for silver content at a local coin shop.

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.

WA-HOO.... It finally arrived!

 

I'ze so tickled, I could spit.

 

Been looking for a decent DIME for quite a while.

 

1807bustdimexf0.jpg

 

I like it better than some XF's I've been looking at. Fer some reason the dime has been elusive.

 

Now it can have a home with some other heraldic eagles

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.

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. confused-smiley-013.gif

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.

I read it Tom, just didn't really pay attention to what it was saying. As I stated, I would've bought them anyway. I was going to originally buy them from NCM, but found them on ebay. thanks Tom
