1818 mint set with a newp!

AnkurJ · February 17, 2012 2:49PM

I recently picked up a 1818 Bust Quarter for my type set, and realized I had a complete 1818 mint set! (minus gold)!
So here they are!
The images of the half were taken years ago before my new photo setup. Please excuse the glare.

Thanks for looking!

That's really cool. I had never given a thought to how few non-gold issues were produced in certain years. Even with the glare, the 1818 CBH appears to have really nice color.

The cent is special, I will keep an eye out on the BST

Buy yourself an 1816 Matron Head large cent, and you can say you have two mint sets. (In 1816, the only denomination produced by the Mint was the cent.)

Very nice, Ankur. Really nice large cent. May have to go read up in some tome why there was no dime or half-dime for a few years.

Great coins! Love the large cent, Ankur. Why haven't you reshot the half? How could you live with that image?

Is this a show us your 1818's thread?

Lance.

Half is sitting in the SDB. The others were imaged before.
