Creating a fantasy IH offcenter clock set from Heritage archive images

shylock

It took a lot of work, and no expense, to create this fantasy clock set.

Imagine how much work it would take to actually collect a set like this?

JJM

for effort

Lakesammman

Would like to see it with all same dates.

Have thought about doing it but never had the time/energy.

buffnut

Very creative! I like it!

Coinosaurus

OK, that's a good start.

Now, make 'em all from the same date

Edited to add, there should be one coin in the center, one of those Indian cents struck in gold.

IrishMike

Heh cool, but does anybody know what time it is~~~~~~~

Coinosaurus

does anybody really care?

i think a forum member actually has a clock like this w/ lincoln cents. im not sure who it was or if he just made it using images of other peoples coins as well. it would be a cool piece to have.

This is the first time I've seen an IHC O/C Clock Set, even a fantasy set like this. I did see a Buffalo Nickel clock set once all 1936's. Pretty neat looking set.

Very cool! Assuming you were the winner of all those auctions, what would the set have cost?

swhuck

Nice set! I'm tempted to ask for permission to steal... er, use this idea in-house.

shylock

"what would the set have cost?"

Good question. About 17K, all taken from Heritage auction archive sales (as mentioned in the original post).

STONE

That's an awesome collection of images.

I see you nabbed all different dates (we can see) for that set.

It's interesting that all those IH errors got mis struck on all those different angles.

have you nothing better to do?

Nice clock works Paul

shylock

GoldenEyeNumismatics - have you nothing better to do?

Apparently not

I love having nothing better to do, it's a state we should all aspire to.

philographer

This is a cool item from the archives...

SullivanNumismatics

That would be a nice set. Lots of nice indians in that clock!

CaptHenway

An oldie but a goodie!

I recall seeing an actual off center Indian cent clock set like this at our local coin club a few years back.
I don't know if he still has it....

Wabbit2313

COOL!

shylock

Forgot about this post, thanks for the TTT.

5 & 7 o'clock are no dates, the ideal would be all dated now that I see this again...

I remember the Buffalo nickel set, I think Stacks had it up for sale, but I can't find any listing for the auction on the web. They way they auctioned it off, they took bids for each of the twelve individual pieces first, then totaled them up and offered the entire set with the sum as the opening bid. I do believe someone ended up purchasing the set intact.
