Description: Ten coins is a little too few. To leave my mark as a collector, my ultimate goal is to obtain a lovely example of the following 16 legendary coins/medals:
Pine Tree Shilling,
Continental Currency "Dollar",
Libertas Americana Medal (original),
Vermont Landscape (Plow) Copper,
1793 Half Cent (Liberty Cap and Pole),
Flowing Hair Silver Dollar,
1836 Gobrecht Dollar (eagle amid starry field),
Capped Bust Half Eagle - Small Eagle reverse,
St. Gaudens Double Eagle - High Relief,
Lafayette Dollar,
Pan-Pacific Gold $50 Commem. (either type),
"Schoolgirl" Silver Dollar pattern,
US Assay Office $50 Gold slug,
Mormon Gold $5,
Lesher Referendum "Dollar",
an original Indian Peace Medal (handshake reverse).
I have entered the coins that I have so far. They are subject to upgrade as opportunity and my budget allow.
