coppercoins

Anyone here who is sharp on any of the types of US coinage - here's your chance to be acknowledged in print. If you know the history of your type well enough to explain why the key dates and semi-key dates are so valuable in your type, please send a PM explaining what your type is, what the keys and semi-keys are, and why. I will keep you updated in this post as to what types have already been done. Thanks.

Already taken care of:

Large cents
Flying eagle cents

Lincoln cents
early half dimes

Oh by the way, I can answer all your questions on the Seated Quarters.
Some may even be right.

Hi Lathmach...this time it's for a book and the information has to be volunteered to me to count. What I'm looking for is the actual historic event or reason behind why the key/semi-keys of a series are such. Just a couple of sentences about each is perfectly fine.
