Gold 50 stars circle edge representing the 50 Male bald eagle states $50 face value (USD) 1 troy oz Gold Year of issue History First released in 1986, the Gold American Eagle coin has become one of the most popular bullion coins in the world since the implementation of the “Gold Bullion Act of 1985”. The coin’s front features the Statue of Liberty as depicted in the famous $20 gold piece between 1907-1933. The reverse depicts a family of bald eagles and includes “United States Of America”, its weight in ounces and its legal tender value of $50. Production: U.S. Mint Produced by the United States Mint, this coin is made up of .9167 (91.67%) gold and is the only bullion coin whose weight, content and purity are guaranteed by the United States Government. Created using gold mined in the United States, it ‘s currently one of the world’s leading gold bullion investment coins. This tender undergoes a specialized minting process, which begins by manually feeding burnished coin blanks into presses. The gold is then melted and repeatedly struck so that the images seem to float above a mirror like field on both the front and back side of the coin. Due to this, the American Eagle Gold Bullion Coin is one of the most sought after coins in the world. Specifications Mint: West Point, New York, U.S.A.

    Testimony of Patrick A. Heller of Liberty Coin Service, Lansing, Michigan IN SUPPORT OF HB 268: EXEMPT SALE OF INVESTMENT METAL BULLION AND COINS FROM SALES TAX AND SIMILAR LANGUAGE IN THE APPROPRIATIONS FOR FY 2022-2023 Submitted before the Ohio Senate Finance Committee May 18, 2021 Chair Dolan and members of the Committee, I write in support of HB 268 to re-establish a sales-and-use-tax exemption for investment metal bullion and coins and for similar language in the Appropriations for FY 2022- 2023 for Ohio. My name is Patrick A. Heller. After working as a CPA in Michigan, in 1981 I became the owner of Michigan’s largest coin dealer, Liberty Coin Service, in Lansing. When Michigan enacted a comparable exemption in 1999, the House and Senate fiscal agencies and the Michigan Treasury used my calculation of forsaken tax collections in their analyses. I also conservatively forecasted the likely increase in Michigan tax collections if the exemption was enacted, and later documented that the actual increase in tax collections was nearly double what I had projected. My analyses of both tax expenditures and documented increases in state Treasury tax collections were subsequently used to support a successful effort to previously adopt this exemption in Ohio. This research has also supported successful efforts to adopt sales and use tax exemptions for precious-metals bullion, coins, and currency in Alabama, Arkansas (signed into law by Governor Hutchinson on May 3, 2021 and taking effect October 1, 2021), Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Nebraska, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Virginia, West Virginia, and Wyoming.

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.

Any information that is inconsistent with the law, regulations, or court decisions is not binding on the department or the taxpayer. Therefore, the information provided herein should serve only as a foundation for further investigation and study of the current law and procedures related to the subject matter covered herein.

    Gresham's law - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gresham's_Law Help us provide free content to the world by donating today! Gresham's law From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Gresham's Law) Gresham's law is commonly stated: "Bad money drives out good." Gresham's law applies specifically when there are two forms of commodity money in circulation which are forced, by the application of legal-tender laws, to be respected as having the same face value in the marketplace. Gresham's law is named after Sir Thomas Gresham (1519 – 1579), an English financier in Tudor times. Contents 1 Definitions 1.1 "Good money" 1.2 "Bad money" 2 Theory 3 History of the concept 3.1 Origin of the name 4 The law in reverse 5 The law in other fields 6 See also 7 Notes 8 References 9 External links Definitions The terms "good" and "bad" money are used in a technical non-literal sense, and with regard to exchange values imposed by legal-tender legislation, as follows: "Good money" Good money is money that shows little difference between its exchange value and its commodity value. In the original discussions of Gresham's law, money was conceived of entirely as metallic coins, so the commodity value was the market value of the coined bullion of which the coins were made. An example is the US dollar, which was equal to 1/20.67 ounce (1.5048 g) of gold until 1934 — and carried an exchange value (at those fixed rates) roughly equal to its coined-gold market value.

    COINS FROM THE ROYAL CANADIAN MINT 2014 | NUMBER 1 PRESERVED foreVER UNFORGETTABLE WITH WORLD- MOMENTS RENOWNED COINS. AT BOUTIQUES AND MINT.CA startING JanuarY 7 153rd BATTalION IN TraINIng. SOurCE: Canada. DEPT. OF NATIONAL DEFenCE / LIbrarY and ARCHIVES Canada / PA-022759 THE POWER OF A WAR-TIME EMBRACE. When Britain declared war on Germany on August 4, 1914, its entire Empire was drawn into the conflict, including Canada. Across the Dominion, men flocked to recruiting stations. Within two months, Canada’s pre-war militia that included a standing army of 3,110 men had grown to 33,000. Many were recent British immigrants or native-born Canadians of British origin, but among them were also more than 1,000 French Canadians, many First Nations as well as many others from diverse ethnic backgrounds. Five hundred soldiers from the British colonies of Newfoundland and Labrador also joined the ranks, while some 2,500 women stepped forward to serve as nurses. Train stations across Canada became the stage for tearful goodbyes and lingering embraces. The First World War was a true coming of age for the young nation, and the hope, fear, courage and deep sacrifice Canadians felt 100 years ago remain as poignant and inspiring today. Designed by Canadian artist Bonnie Ross, this coin depicts a couple’s emotional farewell as the first wave of volunteers boards for camp. Time stands still for this couple as they savour one last embrace before his departure. It is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by those who answered the call of duty, and their loved ones who remained on the home front.
