  • How to Collect Coins a Fun, Useful, and Educational Guide to the Hobby
    $4.95 Valuable Tips & Information! LITTLETON’S HOW TO CCOLLECTOLLECT CCOINSOINS ✓ Find the answers to the top 8 questions about coins! ✓ Are there any U.S. coin types you’ve never heard of? ✓ Learn about grading coins! ✓ Expand your coin collecting knowledge! ✓ Keep your coins in the best condition! ✓ Learn all about the different U.S. Mints and mint marks! WELCOME… Dear Collector, Coins reflect the culture and the times in which they were produced, and U.S. coins tell the story of America in a way that no other artifact can. Why? Because they have been used since the nation’s beginnings. Pathfinders and trendsetters – Benjamin Franklin, Robert E. Lee, Teddy Roosevelt, Marilyn Monroe – you, your parents and grandparents have all used coins. When you hold one in your hand, you’re holding a tangible link to the past. David M. Sundman, You can travel back to colonial America LCC President with a large cent, the Civil War with a two-cent piece, or to the beginning of America’s involvement in WWI with a Mercury dime. Every U.S. coin is an enduring legacy from our nation’s past! Have a plan for your collection When many collectors begin, they may want to collect everything, because all different coin types fascinate them. But, after gaining more knowledge and experience, they usually find that it’s good to have a plan and a focus for what they want to collect.

  • For Sale: One of the First and Most Valuable Dollars in U.S. History You’Ll Need a Lot of Pretty Pennies to Buy It
    For Sale: One of the First and Most Valuable Dollars in U.S. History You’ll need a lot of pretty pennies to buy it. by Isaac Schultz August 28, 2020 The rarity of 1794 "Flowing Hair" dollars makes them among the most valuable coins in the world. This one sold for $10 million in 2013. In October, another dollar from the same batch will give it a run for its money. Rare Coin Wholesalers via Getty Images On October 15, 1794, Henry Voigt, the Chief Coiner of the United States, hurried nearly 2,000 silver coins to the desk of David Rittenhouse, the Director of the United States Mint. That day marked a milestone in the making of a country: Two years after Alexander Hamilton established the Mint under President George Washington, the first dollars had been minted. There’s some debate about what happened next. Some experts say there was a ceremony, well-attended by diplomats and representatives. Others say that despite the historic event, it was all business—no hor d’oeuvres, no party. Still others, including the Smithsonian Institution, say that the coinage was destined for the pockets of the aforementioned dignitaries, as a token of the bright future of the fledgling United States. What’s certain is that now, over 200 Octobers later, one of those dollars will go up for auction.

  • The History of the United States Silver Dollar
    THE HISTORY OF THE UNITED STATES SILVER DOLLAR By Richard Giedroyc The silver dollar was a natural denomination to be adopted by the fledgling United States. The tradition of the so-called “crown” size coin dates from the late 15th century when significant silver finds in Germany and central Europe were struck into ‘talers’. The word ‘taler’ has been translated into many languages where the crown size silver coin has been used. Among these translations are ‘daler’, ‘daalder’ and dollar. The word ‘dollar’ is not unique to the United States, nor was it first used here. James VI of Scotland struck a 30- shilling coin between 1567 and 1571 generally called the Sword Dollar due to his depiction on the obverse holding a sword. The Double Merk of 1578 is called the Thistle Dollar. Charles II of England (1660-1685) struck a dollar denomination coin for Scotland. Fractional denominations were in half, quarter, eighth and sixteenth dollar denominations. Spain issued crown size silver coins in the denomination of 8 reales. Spanish colonial American Mints struck silver mined in Central and South America into 8 reales and smaller denominations, most of the coins shipped back to Spain. The 8-reales coins not exported to Spain were used in local commerce in the New World, some of them eventually arriving in the English colonies along the Atlantic coast. In the 13 original colonies the 8-reales coin was popularly referred to as a milled dollar. Considering the Royal Mint did not provide the necessary coins needed for local commerce the American colonies used any foreign specie available.

  • The 1807 Quarter Story Page 1 of 5 UNIVERSITY of RARE COINS
    UNIVERSITY OF RARE COINS THE 1807 DRAPED BUST QUARTER The Quarter Origins The choice of twenty-five cents (25¢) as a denomination, first originated with the practice of dividing Spanish Milled Dollars into eight equal wedge shaped segments, which commonly became known as "Pieces of Eight," valued at 12½ cents each. Two of these eighth size wedges made up a quarter of a Spanish Real Dollar, which picked up the nickname of "Two Bits," later commonly referred to as a "Quarter." Today, the Quarter Dollar is the workhorse of United States coinage, and it has played a vital role in turning the wheels of commerce for almost 220 years, with an annual production that routinely tops one billion Quarters minted a year. Quarters are probably the most commonly used coin for transactions in the present day, but it hasn't always been that way... In fact, during the early years of federal coinage, the quarter was all but invisible. The United States Mint delayed its introduction for 4 years, from when it was first authorized in the Mint Act of 1792, until it was first struck in 1796, making it one of the last U. S. coins to debut in circulation. The First U.S. Quarter Once minted in 1796, with only 6,146 examples of that date struck, the Mint then suspended production of these 25-cent pieces for nearly a decade, until 1804... truly, the Quarter Dollar was the orphan in the new nation's monetary system. This small initial mintage in 1796 suggests that it was primarily intended to establish the denomination's existence in the United States coinage system..

  • Collectors Guide to U.S. Silver Dollars
    $4.95 LITTLETON’S COLLECTORS GUIDE TO U.S. SILVER DOLLARS Collector Clubs from Littleton Coin Company “There is probably no other United States coin that has been as thoroughly studied, as avidly collected or as well known to numismatists and the public alike, as the silver dollar.” – Kenneth Bressett The first U.S. Mint Editor, Guide Book of United States Coins Dear Collector, Coins reflect the culture and the times in which they were produced, and the United States silver dollar follows America’s story from the nation’s founding to the present. Step back to the days of the American Revolution, and you’ll find that the colonists used a variety of silver coins. Yet, the principal coin was the Spanish dollar, or 8 Reales, forerunner to America’s dollars. David M. Sundman, A legacy of our nation’s past! LCC President In 1792, Congress authorized a silver dollar, and in 1794-1795, America’s first silver dollars – the Flowing Hair – were struck. These were followed by Draped Bust dollars. In early America, the frontier was the Appalachian Mountains. Precious gold and silver was scarce, so except for a few Liberty Seated dollar patterns, no silver dollars were issued from 1804 to 1840. In 1848, the discovery of gold lured thousands to California. By foot, horseback and wagon they came, with their worldly possessions and, perhaps, carefully tucked away Seated Liberty dollars of 1840-1873. Later, with the Comstock Lode’s discovery, the Morgan silver dollar was born! Morgans… Peace dollars… Eisenhower dollars and the small-size Susan B.
