    I have a unique CWT, not slabbed...I guess by definition it's a Pop 1, of course I bought it 15 years ago and another may have been discovered by now.

    Boiler78 - is there any documentation surviving which may suggest that the 1868 Proof set was assembled as a presentation set for international diplomatic purposes during the Reconstruction period, in a fashion similar to those assembled in the 1830's, i.e. King of Siam set?

    Boiler,

    Thank you for showing us your Pattern Proof set [ again ]
    I never tire of seeing it. A Newbie asked what this set was,
    as I remember, its an aluminum set, correct ?

    If I'm wrong, please advise. Many thanks again !

    Also, if you ever decide to sell your 1870 Half Dollar
    [OBV is a Barber design ] ... I'd be thrilled to buy it.
    Its one of the prettiest coins [ regardless of type ]
    I have ever had the priviledge of viewing.

    Well,,, after seeing Boiler's stuff I too have that rusty washer feeling and just can't bring myself to post a coin. I do believe I'd sell a kidney for the J-997 in pr64 btw
    Need something designed and 3D printed?

    I have two. One is a Morgan, and the other is a more obscure US Mint 1976 gold commerative. I also own the one in the lowest grade as well. The total pop in all grades in the the PCGS pop reports is 8. I was the first one to send one in to get graded. That was the one in the lower grade. About two year later I bought a collection and it had one still in the original wooden mint box. I sent it in and it came back PR68. I know it is not a highly collected series, but it sure brings me a lot of pleasure.

    Tremendous coins. I'm partial to the fugio but then I've always been partial to fugios and bar cents.

    This one isn't too shabby either;

    Great revisit! How about a population of ONE and zero others, even in lower grades (unique in PCGS)?

    My POP1 strait out of the 6-coin set. All others in the set were either MS 69 or PR 69. The entire set was later sold.

    I've had a few conditional Pop 1/0 Lincoln's (BN). Here's a newp though. Pop 1/0 MS68.
    Technically, I guess I could say it's Pop 0/1/0 as there are no 67's graded either.

    This Hesse-Darmstadt kreuzer was tied for finest known with one other (pop. 2) when it was in an NGC MS67 holder.

    I took a risk cracking it out and sending it to PCGS, but it came back MS67+, so I suppose that makes it finest known at either service. It is definitely pop 1 now.

    (There is just the other MS67 at NGC, and last I looked the next best one at PCGS was MS65.)

    Not bad for a coin I paid less than a hundred bucks for, I suppose.

    image


    As you can see from these old pictures of it in the previous NGC holder, it's very prooflike.
