There's something magical about the 17xx date and "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" on the simple but elegant early designs

Today is my kind of day; first there was the thread about posting a half dollar and now the thread for the pre-1800 coinage. Although not a Federal issue, this is still an important Colonial issue even though it would likely be better termed a confederation issue.

I love this thread. I hate the fact that so few of my pre-1800 coins have photographs.

Here's one that's pre-1700:

Not my coin, but well-worth posting here:

This coin made the rounds when America was young

now humbled by wear, these early designs, as well as the nice pre-Federal types posted, just radiate "history"

It's only a PCGS G06, but still the favorite eighteenth century coin that I own.

I love the 17 date also.
Here are 3 from 3 different countries.

And one that is a little older from another country

I dig pre-1800 silver, but dig pre-1800 gold even more!

Apologies for the late response... been out of pocket the past few days...
