D.T.'s Coin Album
In 1979 Frank Sinatra sang about a modern day New York--New York but did you know N.Y was founded more than 400+ years ago. This 1745 'First New York Penny' is the first cooper coin to see widespread circulation in N.Y. And talk about aging well, the date on the coin looks absolutely stellar! The coin's technical name is a 'Duit' which is a bit of an oddball name in itself but the coin had a practical side. Its value was 1 cent & in 1745 it could buy a loaf of bread, a pint of beer, a newspaper or even a pipe-full of tobacco. Making this oddball coin even more interesting was it longevity-- it stayed in circulation for 68 years from 1726 - 1794. For numismatics who collect early coins, those were the good old days!

A true survivor! A P/FR coin with 230+ years of hard living, yet all four digits of the date are readable. A coin with true soul & character that has found a safe haven in the D.T. Twilight Zone Collection!

This 1796 Large Cent rocks the house! In the 1790s, coins were heavily circulated as everyday money. Most became completely worn down, damaged, or lost. This puppy in FR02 grade somehow survived but its very scarce with an estimated 500 survivors. Only #11 in this grade by PCGS. Pop Higher is only #189, which give you an idea of how scarce this coin really is. This is a coin with a lot of soul.

For a coin more than 228+ years old, this 1798 large cent has a very high survivor rate, mainly due to its very high mintage of 1,800,000+. It's more rare in PO01 grade, where PCGS has graded 33 coins across all varieties. Overall the coin would be considered a mid-grade PO01 and a nice addition to any lowball collection!

Ooh Baby! An incredibly rare 1799 Large Cent in PO01--a Low-ballers dream coin! For that matter, its a mega prize for any Large Cent collector. The 1799 1C in straight grade is almost mythical. This rare coin is a legendary 'set stopper.' Its R-5.6 rarity scale actually understates its true rarity. With less than 700 survivors, the collector demand for this showcase coin completely outstrips supply. The South Pacific musical from 1949 sings, 'Once you have found him, never let him go.' Likewise for this coin, once you have found it, never let it go--I know I won't.
Yowser! Yowser! Yowser! Condition Rarity! Only 15 in this grade by PCGS. As a bonus this PO01 has a decent readable date. In 1800 Thomas Jefferson was elected as President (by the Electoral College) after a tie with Aaron Burr. Either of these famous figures could have had this very coin in their pockets. Oh my, this coin screams history! A great PO01 for any collection!

Oh Boy, talk about the mint engraver having a bad day. The 1801 3 Errors Draped Bust Large Cent features three distinct punch mistakes on the reverse die: a 1/000 fraction error instead of 1/100, an upside-down U in UNITED that looks like an II, and a missing wreath stem at the bottom left. Pretty much everything that could go wrong did go wrong! What it all adds up too is that this coin in PO01 grade is actually pretty rare with a PCGS Pop #5. A neat coin to have in my collection, to be sure!

Think about it! In 1802 Thomas Jefferson was President and maybe, just maybe, this newly minted coin was in his pocket. Since then, this P/FR PCGS graded coin has had a rough go of it. It's been knocked around, gone down for the count but somehow, some way, got up off the canvas & found a home in the D.T. Twilight Zone Collection. And as a bonus, this 225+ year coin has a readable date! That's what I'm talking about!

The No Stems 1802 One Cent has a famous engraver's error on the reverse. On a totally semi-related' note, 1802 was also the year the U.S. Congress established the United States Military Academy at West Point. This very coin could have been in the pocket of a West Point cadet! p.s. The date on this AG3 coin is superb!

This 1803 Large Cent in FR02 grade has a very good looking & readable date, unlike some FR02's where the date is barely visible. I was the winning bidder at a Great Collections auction & plan to give this coin a good home in my both my PCGS lowball registry set and my PCGS Showcase: The D.T. 'Double' Twilight Zone FR02 Collection.

The Philadelphia Mint produced more than 3 Million of these 1803's but few with an outstanding date like this one in AG03 grade! Not super high on the Sheldon scale, but definitely a coin that is easy on the eyes and a must have straight grade for any early Large Cent collection.

This coin is an R-3 rarity with less than 2,500 survivors. PCGS POP for this FR02 is only #8. The date is fuzzy but the expert PCGS graders are 100% confident that this is an 1805.

This P/FR coin is trying to fight above its weight class. Aside from a few scratches on the reverse & a slight bent, this could be a PO01 grade, maybe even FR02. Nonetheless, this 200+ year old coin sits at the bottom of the totem pole. However, no worries, it has found its home in the D.T. Twilight Zone Collection, where it resides happily with its fellow P/FR friends. p.s. PCGS TrueView pics bring out the date!

This 200+ years coin has had a rough life but has somehow survived AND found a safe home in a PCGS slab. And wonders of wonders the date, while faint is still readable as 1810. A coin that is a true testament to longevity, even under the toughest conditions!

PCGS Pop in FR02 grade is 3. This puppy was hard to find. The 1811/0 is considered three times rarer than the normal-date 1811 large cent. The number of survivors is extremely low, with only a few thousand (or fewer) estimated to exist in any condition. Talk about a rare puppy! As a bonus this FR02 coin has a readable date! Bravo!

News Flash! P/FR coin with decent date! Lowest mintage of the 1816 - 1839 series. Rated R-3 to R-4 overall. This coin has had a bit of a rough life, but its managed to hang in there for more than 200 years, and for that reason alone, it's a welcome addition to this humble numismatics collection!

With 8,000 survivors this coin is not super rare, but it has a bit of 'Demand' rarity because collectors need this coin to fill multiple PCGS registry sets, including the high end 1822 (4 coin) Mint Set. This particular coin has had a bit of a tough life but the 1822 date is clear & readable. This coin is findable but may have to do some diligent searching, particularly in the higher grades.

This coin is definitely an anomaly in this inventory. It's 75 years 'young' and the only coin from the 20th or 21st century in this entire collection. After this coin, the most recent date in this inventory goes all the way back to 1857. Beyond that, numerous coins in this set are from the early 1800's along with multiple coins from the late 1700's. And in a quixotic twist this 1948 'young' coin in MS65 Grade is also the highest graded coin in my entire collection! So while a 1948 Penny is not rare in the numismatist world, its a Unicorn in this registry!

A 100% unique coin with a Broadstrike error which causes a pancake effect guaranteeing that no two error coins are alike. Accentuating this mint state coin is the 'clear' PCGS slab which gives you a pristine panoramic view of this brilliant MS63-Red specimen. And notice that PCGS uses a bit of 'tongue in cheek' humor with the words MINT ERROR at the top of the slab being 'off kilter.' All in all, a subtle coin with a bit of panache. A contemporary coin that fits perfectly in the D.T. Collection of Oddball Coins!

Really??? A 1901 Liberty V Nickel that I purchased for $5 is an oddball coin, really? A regular coin with a staggering mintage of 26 Million & a huge survivor count of 70,000+ an oddball, really? Yes really! Of the 50 Million+ coins PCGS has graded since 1986 less than .01% have been graded P/FR, the lowest grade on the scale. Its highly likely that this 1901 5C coin is a Unicorn by being the 'ONLY' 1901 nickel graded P/FR. And that my friend, is why this coin is the perfect fit for the D.T. Collection of Oddball coins! p.s. Check out the date on this coin--its readable--not bad for a coin more than 125+ years old. Ain't it grand!

After a nine-year hiatus on quarters, the Mint finally dropped this beauty in 1815. This example proves you don’t need an MS-65 to have incredible eye appeal. The deep, rich patina framing the remaining details gives Lady Liberty a dramatic silhouette. An honest survivor of the War of 1812 era that has stood the test of time!
This quarter has been out in the world surviving for well over two centuries, and honestly? It’s aged better than most of us. Despite a hefty mintage of over 360,000, finding one today that retains this kind of smooth, matched, problem-free circulation skin is surprisingly tough. A gorgeous workhorse of early American commerce.
Don't let the "G06" on the label fool you; this is a stealth rarity. With fewer than 1,000 estimated survivors left across all grades, seeing this coin is a statistical anomaly. The details are worn smooth by history, but the "Small 9" remains clear and proud. It's a low-grade, high-character ghost.

A very nice VG08! While it's not the rarest date in this quarter lineup, it makes up for it in pure classic appeal. It’s a highly collectable, universally loved early type coin. The "Large 0" variety stands out beautifully, offering just enough extra design detail to make you appreciate the craftsmanship of the early U.S. Mint.

Welcome to Rarity-4 territory. PCGS Numismatic Rarity estimates that only 500 to 1,000 of these have survived the melting pots and pockets of time. It’s got that beautiful, deep gray crust that Bust material collectors lose their minds over. This G06 didn't just survive; it did so with absolute style!

It might say AG-3 on the plastic, but this coin screams history. A scarce R-3 variety with roughly 1,000 survivors left on the planet. It’s got the perfect "pocket piece" charm—smoothly worn from centuries of changing hands, yet entirely honest and completely original. Not the prettiest quarter out there, but certainly one with a ton of soul & just the right dash of panache!

The Holy Grail. Beyond rare, this 1823/2 Capped Bust Quarter is an astronomical R-8.8 rarity with a microscopic ~ 31 known survivors. To top it off, this example boasts legendary pedigree, tracing its lineage back to the elite collection of the late American composer, Jerome D. Kern. This isn't just a coin; it’s a numismatic high like none other. I am incredibly honored and humbled to be the current custodian of this beyond amazing coin. PCGS POP #2

Think the 1823/2 Holy Grail quarter is the only overdate star attraction? Think again. The 1824/2 is a genuine numismatic elite, with fewer than 450 survivors estimated to exist. Coming in at a solid, crusty VG08, the overdate is unmistakable. It's the perfect lieutenant to accompany the 1823/2 in this line.

This crisp VG-10 1828 is an absolute looker. The PCGS TrueView photography perfectly captures its deep, uniform, old-school look. With a mintage of 102,000 and less than 2,000 survivors, this stately looking coin is a must have for any serious quarter collector!

This 1833 quarter in XF45 is an absolute beauty! The 1833 mintage was only 156,000 (the lowest in the reduced size 1831 - 1838 quarters), making it a somewhat scarce but not super rare coin. Survivor estimates about 1,775. PCGS Pop #37. Pop Higher - only #133.
A solid looking 1837 quarter in VF25 grade. With a modest mintage of 252,400 and a PCGS survivor estimate of 2,400, this coin is accessible but definitely harder to find in higher grades. Both the trouble free obverse & reverse on this coin indicate this coin is at the upper range of the VF25 grade.
In 1838, the Philadelphia Mint produced two entirely different quarter designs: the final year of the classic Capped Bust and the debut of the new Seated Liberty design.The 1838 Bust Quarter is a readily accessible coin for collectors, but in VG10 grade its a beautiful example of a mid-grade coin that is easy on the eyes & a welcome addition to any registry. PCGS Pop in VG10 grade is #7.
This 1822 50C had a substantial mintage of 1.5 Million+ & a survivor rate in the thousands. This coin in F15 grade has clean lines and a strong date, as would be expected in this mid-grade. The 1822 50C is needed by collectors for the 1822 (4) coin Mint Set.

The 1823 Half Dollar is a common date in the Capped Bust series thanks to a rather hefty mintage of nearly 1.7 million coins. This particular XF40 coin definitely has a high end look and may be closer to an XF45 or even on the edge of a AU50. A coin that could be considered 'handsome' and is a welcome addition to this numismatics collection.

This 1822 1 Cent had a healthy mintage of 2 Million+ and a survivor count of 8,000, making it a easy find for collectors. This particular coin in G06 grade has an outstanding date and aside for a few scuffs, its a good looking specimen. It also sits in my 1822 PCGS (4) coin Mint Set registry, so its an important coin for my collection.

Oh Baby, this is one cool coin! A super rare 1802 10C in JR-4 variety rated R-5 on the rarity scale.. PCGS CoinFacts estimates a minuscule 165 survivors across all grades. As a bonus the date on this P/FR coin pops! The only thing keeping this coin from a LowBall PO-01 or FR02 grade is pitting on the obverse on the bust shoulder. Aside from that, this 220+ year old coin absolutely rocks the house! p.s. I found this coin in raw state and gave it a permanent home in a PCGS slab with TrueView pictures that capture the true essence and beauty of this beyond amazing rare coin!
Many collectors refer to this coin as a mini Holy Grail. It's famous for its Market rarity--Absolute rarity--Condition rarity & incredible Collector Demand. The 1804 Quarter (R-4) has a minuscule mintage of 6,738, with less than 400 survivors. This coin is a serious set stopper and incredibly difficult to find in ANY grade, let alone a 'straight' grade like this FR02. As a bonus this coin has an absolutely amazing date that is more like an VG8. PCGS Pop in this FR02 B-1 variety is ONE--Yes #1. p.s. I found this coin in an ANACS slab rated FR02 and successfully crossed to PCGS as an FR02. Looks fabulous in TrueView pictures!
Holy overdate, Batman! This isn't just an overdate—it’s a triple overdate chaos piece. The Mint die-sinkers were clearly having a wild day when they punched a 5 over a 4 over a 2. Only about 1,500 to 3,000 examples exist across all grades for this Browning-2 variety. It’s got the ultimate "pizzaz" factor for die-marriage nerds.

Hold on to your socks! This 1788 Massachusetts Cent absolutely steals the show! Of the 50 Million+ coins PCGS has graded since 1986, less than .01% are graded P/FR. It's virtually 100% certain that this is the 'ONLY' 1788 Cent PCGS has graded P/FR. Can you say Unicorn! And against all odds, it has a clear, fully readable 1788 date! A magnificent piece of post-colonial copper that wandered in the wilderness for 238+ years but has now found a permanent home in the D.T. Twilight Zone P/FR Collection! Or as the Fonz would say: PERFECTOMUNDO!

This coin is a doozy! It represents the highest mint error in U.S. History! More than 250,000 struck coins completely bypassed the edge-lettering machine at the mint! Most mint errors are isolated flukes affecting a single coin, but this colossal blunder meant that 250,000+ George Washington $1 coins had no date, no mint mark and no 'IN GOD WE TRUST.' So while this individual coin isn't a 'one of a kind', this mistake is so mind-boggling massive that it is truly a 'one of a kind' mint blunder that we almost certainly never see again in our lifetime! This 250,000 error coin gaffe is the Unicorn of U.S. Mint faux pas, which makes this coin a perfect fit for the D.T. Collection of Oddball Coins!

Oh Baby, this Token rocks the house! PCGS gave the token a nice AU58, but the real magic is the housing:. A Rhode Island Civil War token featured in a Witter (WitterBricks) slab. Its not beyond rare - (R-2 on the Fuld scale), but is souper unique and a 'one of a kind' Civil War token in AU58, in a peerless PCGS/Witter slab, and that’s precisely why this 160+ old token is a splendorous addition to this Showcase!

This showcase features rare Tokens/Medals, but this 2021 is a bit of a backdoor entry. PCGS produced 35,000 (a fairly large amount) of these medals in 2021 to celebrate its 35th Anniversary. However, this 'Thank You' medal with a production of only 4,200 is a subset of the entire 35,000. Because only 4,200 pieces carry the explicit 'THANK YOU FROM PCGS' line, slab registry competitors and registry enthusiasts view it as a distinct, low-mintage variety within the PCGS promotional line. The bottom line is simply this, if your coin collecting world resides in the PCGS universe, you absolutely must have this Medal in your collection!

This absolutely unique coin covers all the bases! It hits the trifecta with a P\FR Grade, 1810/09 overdate, and a J.J. Loomis Counterstamp--Identified and cataloged by numismatist Dr. Gregory G. Brunk. This is a 200+ year old coin with a true touch of soul & history!

The 1804 1 Cent is a VERY difficult coin to find in ANY grade, let alone a straight grade like this FR02. While it has a decent survivor count--500 to 1000, this coin experiences 'Demand Rarity', whereby there are simply more buyers than coins available. For many collectors this coin is a 'set stopper.' I was fortunate to find this gem in an NGC slab rated FR02 & successfully crossed it to PCGS in FR02. PCGS lists this FR02 as Pop #1. Its the 'ONLY' FR02 1804 S-226C variety in the entire PCGS universe! This 1804 1C stands only second to the uber-rare 1799 cent as a premier date required for a complete large cent collection
