    Holly stela, these are super cool. It’s been listed as a denomination but are $4 Stella coins essentially pattern coins?

    Essentially yes but a lot of them were made (400-ish estimated of the flowing hair design), more than most patterns, and they are considered part of the “Complete U.S. Type Set” in the Registry, which is why I bought this one- 67CAM CAC- I thought it was really nice and frosty.

    To post just after Floridafacelifter and Boiler is a fool's errand but I do like my humble-by-comparison Gobrecht. Someday I will get Todd to image it for me.
