a good list of modern commeratives?

[WaxonWaxov]

Hi,

 

Am I asking too many questions today?

 

Anyone know where I can get a good list of modern commeratives? Including whether they were issued in MS, PF, or both?

 

Coinfacts.com lists all the types, but not MS, PF, or Both.

 

or maybe I'm being stupid and all modern commerative are issued in MS and PF, but I don't think that is the case.

I would suggest the Red Book, they are usually pretty exhaustive, including listing the multiple coin sets that were issued, though the mintage figures may not be accurate on the newest issues.

It's all in the redbook. If you don't have one, I'd reccomend you buy one.

Red Book... check...

 

The most recent Red Book I have is dated 1986.... really.

 

I've have to get a new one.

 

In the meantime I've also discovered that I can create a registry set that has it all, then copy/paste it into Excel, then clean it up a bit and presto! instant list!

 

Of course, I realize the Red Book hasmintage counts, etc. so I will get one.

 

thanks

The only good modern commemorative is the 1984 Olympic dollar. You needn't worry yourself about the rest

The only modern commemoratives (or any commemoratives, really) I care about are the Statue of Liberty coins (My very first coin was a Statue of Liberty Proof Silver Dollar for my first birthday), and the First Flight coins.

 

But, I agree, if you need a good list, the Red Book is where it's at.

Coin World's Coin Values should have a complete list of modern commems and it'll tell you whether the coins were issued in MS and/or Proof.

Jesus, I'm old.

 

I have the Statue of Liberty Half which I got for either my birthday or Christmas in 1986. I was 14.

Don't feel bad - I was 24 in '86

Haha zrlevin neither were mine!

I think XPipeDreameR is joking...I hope. The Leif Ericson commemeratives are stunning IMHO . But, I suppose, that we all have our favorites.

Jeesh how old are you guys? Do your parents know that you are chatting with grown-ups online?

I'm almost 16, born in 1990. Yes my parents know that I am a member of these message boards, anthough I don't think they have ever been to this site.

 

Any more questions?

He didn't say how many years he was a senior in high school, did he?

Okay that's kinda funny. I admit it.

Doesn't get much more complete than the NGC population reports:

 

Modern Commemoratives (Proof)

Modern Commemoratives (Mint State)

 

Red Book is of course nicer because it provides photos, background, mintages (except in a couple of cases) and approximate average retail prices as of the time the data were compiled. For a quick overview, however, the census is handy.
