  • What Are the 100 Greatest U.S. Coins?
    Liberty Seated Collectors Club http://www.numismalink.com/lscc.html What are the 100 Greatest U.S. Coins? By Robert A. Izydore In Issue #88 of the journal Weimar White described the Liberty Seated coins in the book 100 Greatest U.S. Coins by Jeff Garrett and Ron Guth. This interesting book contains nice photographs of the listed coins and includes some good background information about them. The Numismatic Literary Guild and the Professional Numismatists Guild (PNG) both chose this book as their best numismatic book for 2003. The top 20 coins were ranked by 84 PNG members while the remaining 80 were ranked by the authors. The PNG members were given a list of the top 100 greatest coins and asked to rank them. The members had the option of adding any coins to the list that they thought should be included. White’s summary stated that the concept of greatness was based on the factors of rarity, value, quality, popularity, beauty and history. It was nice to see that the authors ranked 16 Liberty Seated coins among the 100 greatest U.S. coins in their book. The top three ranked coins were the 1804 silver dollar, the 1913 Liberty Head nickel, and the 1933 double eagle, respectively. White pointed out that greatness is a subjective quality, and I wholeheartedly agree. However, as I look at the coins ranked at the top of the list, it is apparent that these are the coins that sell for the highest prices at auction and in private sales. In other words the rank given to a coin was heavily skewed by its value.
