    1834 because it's a Class I?

    I think they were struck in 1834 for some dignitaries. They were supposed to be 1803 but they messed up.

    Ha ha ha, can you imagine the flap that occured in the front office when they noticed the incorrect date? Something like this: "You idiot!! These were supposed to say 1803, not 1804. Now they are worthless!! Well, go figure out some way to get rid of these, maybe you can put them in some of those left over 1834 gold PROOF sets and give them away there!".image

    Andy, I believe that your title for this thread is incorrect - wasn't this particular 1804 dollar struck well AFTER 1834?

    it's an artificial coin w/ artificial tone.

    The different classes were struck in the 1830's, 50's and 60's? Something like that.
