  • Collecting America the Beautiful 5 Ounce Silver
    Liberty Coin Service Collecting America The Beautiful 5 Ounce Silver Quarters by Thomas Coulson The Statehood Quarter program which ran from 1999 to 2009 was im- mensely popular. It introduced millions of new collectors to numismat- ics. These new collectors were searching their change for the latest issues and eagerly awaiting the release of the quarter from their home state. As a result of this success, Congress authorized a new series of commem- orative quarters honoring important sites in each of the fifty states and six territories and possessions. The new coins were introduced under the title America the Beautiful Quarter Series. They were also known by the abbreviation ‘ATB’. The coins were first issued in 2010, and five sites were honored each year and will continue to be through 2021. There 2010 Mount Hood, Oregon are two main themes for the issues: Natural wonders and Historic sites. 5 Ounce Silver Quarter The America the Beautiful Quarter series is an intriguing collection to assemble. The coins promote awareness of so much of the Nation’s natural grandeur and its hallowed grounds. De- sign lessons the Mint learned from the Statehood Quarter series were applied to the new coins. The America the Beautiful coins are more aesthetically pleasing than the earlier Statehood quarters because of their common border design and more specific subject matter. While the State Quarters could encompass many different types of themes, the America the Beautiful Quarters had specific subjects assigned for each state before the design process. At their best, the designs are innovative and alluring. The Mount Hood, Statehood Quar- ter Obverse Denali, Hawai’i, and White Mountain issues are great examples of modern numismatic art.

'1 ISN’ T the thing you do, dear, It’s the thing you’ve left undone, — Which gives you a hit of heartache At the selling of the sun. & ^ & The tender word forgotten, The letter you did not write, The flower you might have sent, dear, Are your haunting ghosts to-night. The stone you might have lifted Out of a brother’s way. The bit of lieartsome counsel You were hurried too much to say; The loving touch of the hand, dear, The gentle and winsome tone, That you had no time nor thought for, With troubles enough of your own. The little acts of kindness. So easily out of mind; These chanceh to be angels Which every mortal finds. They come in night and silence, Each chill, reproachful wraith, When hope is faint and flagging. And a blight has dropped on faith.

  • Collecting Jefferson Nickels by Thomas Coulson in the Wake of the Great Depression, Americans Were Looking to ‘Ac- Centuate the Positive’ Aspects of the United States
    Liberty Coin Service Collecting Jefferson Nickels by Thomas Coulson In the wake of the Great Depression, Americans were looking to ‘ac- centuate the positive’ aspects of the United States. It is no wonder that regular U.S. Coinage began to feature our founding fathers as a reminder of the Nation’s rich past. When the nickel denomination was eligible for a redesign in 1938, a contest was held to find the Buffalo Nickel’s -re placement. Felix Schlag, of Owosso, Michigan won the contest with his design of Thomas Jefferson’s profile and his home, Monticello. Three great presidents were now portrayed on regular issue U.S. Coins: Lin- coln (Cent, 1909), Washington (Quarter, 1932) and Jefferson (Nickel, 1938). 1938-S Jefferson Nickel The 1930’s also brought a rapid expansion to the field of coin collecting. The hobby was popularized by the keen marketing of dealers like Wayte Raymond and B. Max Mehl. In anticipation of the burgeoning coin market many dealers including Raymond and Mehl, accumulated roll quantities of new coins. The introduction of mass produced coin boards made collecting appealing and convenient for new collectors. Information about coins and their values became more widely disseminat- ed. These events made coin collecting more accessible to the general public and through the next two and a half decades the hobby continued to thrive. This new dynamic growth in the hobby created an interesting backdrop for the Jefferson Nickel series. Collectors became almost instantly aware of which new is- sues were scarce and affected circulation patterns of these coins. For example, the ‘low mintage’ 1950-D Nickel became an instant numismatic sensation when it be- came known that only 2.6 million coins were minted.
