They say 1915, but I think they are really from the 60's...

Thank you Brother Tom! It's some yummy candy for the eyes...
Did not know Timothy Leary moonlighted at the Mint back then. Those are sublime!
More great looking proofs!
It is also interesting how each digit on each denomination looks completely different from one another.
Duuudde! That Quarter is awesome man!!

And thus is the reason I love proofs
Yes, and the smushed 5 on the dime is interesting too!

Nice set.
Mintage of Barber Proofs in 1915 was 450....Second lowest, behind the 1914 (380). Breen says "Numerals on all 1915 dimes cruder than on any preceding years."
With the famous Shroom Collection provenance.

Nice coin 😎
The 1898 set is pretty hallucinogenic as well:
Oh wow man ... flashbacks!
That 98 half looks like when me and Jake were out surfing the Jalama break at sunset! Groovy dude!!

More colors here than in a gay pride parade. I mean that in a good way.
1898 Half Description: Liberty sitting up on her surfboard, the off-shore breeze blowing her liberty cap off her head, as she gazes into last rays of sunlight, in search of the perfect tube.......That's Rad!
What a long strange trip it's been.
Good stuff!

I’d say Mr Liberty also has a different expression among the denominations!
Sweeeet coins
"Got a flaming heart, can't get my fill"
Eldorado, all of your coins are beautiful.
Thank you Rooster1 It's fun to share....Wish we could all get together.
Wow. Amazing eye candy. Really nice examples.
I get totally mesmerized looking at the half dollar. Geez...is this what LSD feels like?
