Thank you to all who have visited the Portraits of Liberty Large Cent Type set, either online or in person during the recent Long Beach display! I appreciate all of your kind comments and it was great to meet many of you at the show!

It's taken some time, but I've finally put together all of the images for the Complete Date Set 1793-1857, and that is now open for viewing HERE. This set is planned for display at the upcoming ANA show in Boston and the Baltimore show later this fall, and I hope everyone gets a chance to see it in person, or online.

    Cardinal, Since your not willing to rent them for a weekend... when on show display is it possible to fondle your 1839-1843 Petite Heads image

    A big shout out to Cardinal for exhibiting this in Boston. There is considerable logistical & financial support necessary to put these things together. Can't wait to see it in person!

    Cardinal,

    Your Early Dollars set was/is one of my Registry favorites. For me, you've just added another Registry favorite to my list.

    Thanks for sharing. And congratulations on a superb, well presented, set of Large Cents.

    I think they should do away with the "guess" graded registry sets. This should be the #1 Finest since it includes ONLY PCGS graded coins and there are no coins that were graded decades later from photos. Maybe we all can send in photos of our coins and have them graded by PCGS?

    Congratulations on an unbelievable set!

    An excellent show of numismatic knowledge! Well done!

    While my experience in those series have been limited and of the lower quality material, I have always enjoyed them when someone shares their collection with me. My first was an older gentleman from the midwest who stored most of his cents and 1/2 cents in albums. They were of high grade and quality. I believe since then, has parted with his collection. I run into him at the area coin shows every once in awhile. He still gets around but with the help of a walker.
    And then there were the two dealers who specialized in them including the one, Tom Reynolds. I've always enjoyed looking over his coins.

    Well, there went about 45 minutes of my time but well spent.

    Thank you,

    Leo

    Thanks everyone for all of your kind comments!

    With much appreciation to co-hosts CFC and Bowers & Merena, the Complete Date Set 1793-1857 will be on display for the duration of the ANA show, August 10th through August 14th, spanning the CFC and B&M tables. So, if you're attending the show, please come on over to check out the display. All the coins will be there live, and you will even be able to see them up on the big-screen digital display.

    As a souvenir to those who come by (subject to the supply), there will also be a free 40-page booklet about U.S. Large Cents, titled Portraits of Liberty, containing all of the text and images from the Portraits of Liberty Type Set:

    image


    And to Coinosaurus, I really appreciate your recognition of what goes into such a display. Many show attendees might not have any idea of the efforts and costs associated. The good people at B&M and CFC, especially Catherine Canuti, have been invaluable in handling all of the logistics of the display and for hosting the space required image, and, as far as the financial requirements are concerned, I will just say that they are not inconsequential. image
