WTB - Older Elongated Coins!!!

EXOJUNKIEEXOJUNKIE Posts: 1,609 ✭✭✭✭✭

I’m looking for pre-1960 elongated coins, or “pressed” coins as they are sometimes called. Any subject and denomination. Anything listed in “Yesterday’s Elongateds” and then some! Singles and entire collections wanted! I know dealers and collectors often tuck them away because they don’t know much about them. I’m a knowledgeable collector looking to fill holes in my collection. If in doubt about what you have PM me with a photo and/or description and I’ll help. Paying strong prices for pieces I need and even for ones I don’t!

I'm addicted to exonumia ... it is numismatic crack!

    My own custom elongated coins are done on earlier host coins (Indian cents, Wheaties, Barber and Merc dimes). But they were elongated in 2019 and 2020. So they’re a bit different- and I daresay collectible- but maybe not quite what you’re after, if you want elongates from early dies.

    Still, I’d sell you a set for ten bucks delivered, if you want some.

    Apologies for the brutally slow CollectiveCoin link below- give it time to load. I’m migrating to a much better collection management site, but am only halfway moved. These are still on the old site.

    Thanks...I already have a set of your elongateds! I can’t remember if I purchased them or won them in a giveaway, but they are firmly in my collection! :)

    We did some printing for a guy years back that did elongated cents and counter stamped cents.
    He had them forsale in truck stops all across the country.

    The business name was Penny Crafters.
    At one time I think he had a website.

    There are not as many as I thought :s The double wide box is mostly transport tokens and coin show medals .

    Annndddd ..... I am having trouble reading the elongated coins thats a reading glasses issue but basically I have 10 elongated silver dimes and one elongated indian head penny.

    a dollar face value of elongated silver :#:# 7 are from cali based coin shows and 3 are people related

    @Coll3ctor, thanks for posting these. Unfortunately 3 of them are too new and The Hall of Science is common. I’m sorry.

    Don’t let that keep anyone from posting or PMing me though as you never know unless you ask … I promise a quick answer and/or offer! 🙂

    There are some elongated Indian cents on ebay from St. Louis Lewis and Clark 1904 exposition. Put 1904 St Louis Louisiana expo in search box to find. Also try 1905 Portland Louisiana expo. There may be some there also.
