    Just a random note for you, but the one in the lower left shouldn't have a numbered card as it isn't an "UNCIRCULATED" type holder. It should have the two card setup as the one above it does.

    Nice group of GSA's, nonetheless.

    Nice catch.............the card is for an 84 and the coin is an 83 :smile:
    And yes............................Nice group of GSA's, nonetheless.

    I may have mixed those cards by accident or bought them that way, I really only looked at the coins themselves.
    If the current owner wants to send them all back for a full refund I will gladly provide that, but doubt it will happen, since I sold those a little low in the first place.

    Not sure to be honest, I'm not familiar with that pedigree...
    Nice coin though! :smiley:

    Nice coin, but shame on NGC for that ridiculous, made-up "Colosseum Hoard" marketing ploy. It is, to the best of my knowledge, purely invented on their part. The coins with these labels span many different centuries, which would be highly unlikely for a genuine hoard. (I'm not saying anything against the coins themselves- but that particular NGC pedigree, like their "Seven Hills Hoard" one, is fictitious and I daresay misleading to the point of being downright unethical.)

    If anyone has any historical or archaeological information to refute this, I welcome it. But I have found it nearly impossible to discover anything that corroborates the existence of a real "Colosseum Hoard" that these hundreds if not thousands of widely varied types came from.

    England: silver penny of King John, ca. 1213-1215, from the Gisors hoard found in Normandy
    (PCGS XF45)

    United States: copper large cent, Coronet type, 1818; likely from the Randall Hoard
    (PCGS MS62 BN)

    I bought these more for the novelty of it; however, the Washie's I like to collect at MS66 grade so hoard did not matter on that one- was more of a nostalgic bonus.

    Do darkside shipwreck coins count as a hoard? This 1886/76 Guanajuato 8R is one of an estimated million or so Mexican Cap & Rays 8 Reales that went down with the USS Charleston, the first steel vessel lost by the United States Navy, when she was grounded on an uncharted reef near Camiguin Island north of Luzon on November 2, 1899. Previously, she had been responsible for securing Guam without firing a shot upon the outbreak of the Spanish-American War.

    Awesome. Known shipwreck provenance counts exactly the same as a buried land hoard in my book.

    I wanted an early and later $20 for my California Gold set. Instead of just finding coins to fill holes, I tried to find special coins and shipwreck / hoard coins fit nicely.

    Hoarding coins of silver and gold is a great problem to have. Hoarding pizza boxes and bags of old cat litter.....not so much.

  • BloodManBloodMan Posts: 1,836 ✭✭✭✭✭

    ex. S.S. Republic. There was only a single mint state 1855-S double eagle recovered from the S.S. Republic. This AU58 coin with CAC approval has remaining luster and without any significant marks. It is undoubtedly one the nicest from the shipwreck.

    Awesome coin BloodMan.

    Great coins everybody!
