Last night I posted my pair of 1907 Eagles which would be a last and a first. If someone would like to post a pic of something like that that they have I think it would be interesting . As an example the the 1909 Indian cent and the 1909 Lincoln cent.

    @pocketpiececommems Have you tried to soak your 1938-D nickel in acetone to get that black crud off? I know it isn't a valuable coin, but it may be an interesting experiment.

    I sold mine but somebody must have a 73 Seated dollar and a 73 Trade.

    Many more examples of “overlapping” series. Capped/LS examples. 1916 dimes or quarters. The 1873 LS dollar and Trade are a bit of a stretch. 1913 nickel might be considered a three-way (albeit a stretch) as might the 1883 nickel.

    @Copperindian said:
    I think this qualifies as last/first. 1907 was the last year for the $2 1/2 Liberty Head & 1908 was the first year for the $2 1/2 Indian:


    Very nice, but I think the original idea was to show overlapping series when the two share the SAME date - as the OP illustrated with his 07 eagles.

    Most people have beaten me to the punch. Here are a couple.

    Already done, but.

    Retired dealer and avid collector of U.S. type coins, 19th century presidential campaign medalets and selected medals. In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible. I am also collecting at least one coin for each Roman emperor from Julius Caesar to ... ?
