Post your gold

Recommended Posts

I have been playing about with my camera trying to get some better pictures of my coins. I thought I would share my world gold coin pictures with you. It is a side line in my collecting interest but steadily growing.

Please feel free to post pictures of your gold coins it would be interesting to see others too!

1851golddollar.jpg

I don't really have a lot of gold coins, just a few older USA coins, mostly gold rush era. This is a type 1 gold dollar from 1851.

1854ten.jpg

One of the first coins issued by the San Francisco mint, which opened in the small office of a private minter that year.

187420.jpg

San Francisco mint $20 from 1874. I like the Liberty $20's slightly more than the St. Gauden's $20.

No they are full brockages. I have got the 25 Kurus brokage pair and the 50 Kurus brokage pair.

Similar reverse 25 Kurus coin dated 2000 PSGS MS64 can be seen in Mike Byers's sold coins museum:

I don't know how much his sold for though?

It is nicely centered and a nice strike with minimum wear.

Hard to photograph through the slab but it's nicer in hand.

:lol: I know what you mean! classic film.

Incidentally did you know the origins of the two finger V f... you salute was supposed to have came from the battle of Agincourt?

Charles VI had promised to cut off the both the index and the middle fingers of any English longbow men he captured so they couldn't use the longbow again.

So during the battle they would give him the now famous two finger salute in a show of defiance!
