1916 Coins of the USA and World
|
First I just planned to get a nice example of each USA type for 1916. I knew the Standing Liberty quarter was going to be a problem. Presently that is substituted for by a 1917 Standing Liberty quarter. Hopefully one of us will pick that up someday.
A little later in 2016 I figured I should see what other 1916 coins were available. We now have more than 46 different countries / colonies / protectorates / territories covered.
For some countries only base metal coins or tokens are available for 1916. (Venezuela has only leper colony tokens). For many other countries, I have never seen any coin of any kind available. Guatemala, Greece, and Paraguay have nice paper money from 1916 but no coins to my knowledge. Chinese provincial coins and spectacular "fat man" special issues of 1916 could occupy someone's collecting life and budget on their own. I cannot expect to make more headway than the 20 Cent "Yuan Shikai" coin here, at most improving to a shinier one.
There are currently 23 gold coins here containing 5.86 troy ounces Actual Gold Weight; a snapshot of the world at the end of a gold standard. By 1916 many countries that had struck cold coins for the past 50 years were done. No Russian, French, or German gold coins were struck in 1916. Nor were many other previously common gold coins. A collection of gold coins from all the countries striking them in 1910 would have been more than twice as much gold.
The Cuban Peso is exactly the same AGW as a US dollar. A US $5 is almost exactly the same AGW as Mexico's 10 Peso coin, and just barely more than a Peru Libra or Egypt 100 Piastres.
Coins that I know exist, and can be sometimes bought, but mostly for too much, and not too often, include:
1. Tibet silver tankaa 2. Better Columbia 50c 3. Better Canada 50c 4. Better British Honduras 5c 5. British Guiana and West Indies 6. Afghanistan Gold. 2 graded by NGC 7. Tunisia Gold (23 minted? None certified by anyone) 8. I guess someday I will have to get the 1916 standing liberty quarter
My kid hopefully has many decades to grow up and work on this

26 Centuries of Gold
|
Primary Objective: Assemble a timeline of gold coins from the start of coinage through the present. Ideally, this will be without more than 100 years between the examples for each century. The second century BC (100's BC) is proving to be a tough century to find gold coins from.
Secondary Objective: Illustrate the longest running issues used in long-distance trade between neighbors, enemies, and strangers. Once coinage was developed, major international trade almost always relied on gold coins. This is why Western Europe was draining out gold and silver to India and East Asia in the long run; a forerunner of today’s major trade deficits between the “West” and modern India and East Asian states. Except today, somehow we got those countries to accept our digital currency units instead of real money or products. Examples of “mini series” include the Netherlands gold ducats of 1586 to the present, Venetian ducats from the 1280’s to 1797, Islamic dinars and other gold units from about 700 to the present, Byzantine solidi from about 300 to 1000, etc.
Tertiary Objective: Get nice examples of gold coins from significant places or people in world history.

WCN - Pre-1800 World Coins
|
I started collecting like a lot of us have. My grandfather collected coins when I was little, and I helped him sort coins. He gave me a Lincoln folder that we filled holes in. It is amazing to me how nice his collection was, and he never purchased a coin. Everything came from circulation. Fast forward 40 years and my tastes have evolved.
At this point the bulk of my new acquisitions are world coins. My favorites are large diameter copper/brass/bronze pieces. This is due to my love of US large cents. Aside from that, I buy anything that speaks to me, you know the voice. Hope you enjoy it.
At some point, everything will be in only NGC holders, but certain details graded coins don't bother me so will stay in the set.

Wildman Coins of the German States
|
To assemble a set of Wildman (or Wild Man) coins from the German States that has as many different varieties as I can acquire. I am trying to only add new pieces that are well struck but this is very challenging. This is a fascinating series that I always find new reasons to love.
It's hard to believe that it has been over 6 years since I created this set on the registry. I continue to add coins as I find them but recently, I have focused on Thalers. There is an enormous number of minors available but in general, they don't have the stylistic beauty of the Thalers. No other coins in my collection give me the joy that these Wildmen do.

United Kingdom Gold Sovereigns -- Date Set
|
Complete set 1817 to date. Total of 173 dates as of 2022. Have 98 = 57%.
I started collecting gold sovereigns in Jan 2022, so the set is just getting started. A few of the rarer years will not be obtainable on my limited budget, but I hope to acquire as many as possible.
In every case, my main objective is to obtain coins with great "eye appeal". Not looking for the highest grade, but rather the nicest looking example that I can find for each year. Since most MS60 to MS62 coins are heavily "bag-marked", I will generally seek out nicer looking AU coins for my collection.
A separate sub-goal is to collect all of the 1979 to 2022 coins in Proof condition. Since only a few thousand were struck each year, that is going to take a while! So this is a long-term project.
Thanks for looking! Enjoy your hobby!

PASSION OF LUDWIG
|
Ludwig I ruled Bavaria from his coronation in 1825 until 1848, when he abdicated his throne in favor of his son, Maximilian. It is my opinion that he was one of the most interesting personae in German history. As a very intelligent and educated man, he assumed his role as a King with full responsibility and, arguably, great passion. He had a great many passions; he loved change, and imposing it, he loved women, art, science, Greece, architecture etc. – but his dearest passion of all was coins, of course! He adored seeing new coins, especially those displaying his portrait and great achievements as the King. He oversaw the production of many commemorative coins: more than any other Germanic ruler. Within this set I would like to tell you the flamboyant story of the great ruler, Ludwig I of Bayern, son of Maximilian I Joseph, Duke of Franconia, Duke of Swabia, Count Palatine of the Rhine, etc. Let the journey begin!

Netherlands East Indies - Minted by the U.S. Mint
|
A complete set of coins minted by the U.S. Mint for the Netherlands East Indies during World War II with all of the primary coins graded MS65 or higher. Any variety or error coins may be lower. This basic goal has been met with the exception of the 1941S 1/4G at MS64 which is currently has only one finer awarded by NGC. Until I find a nicer raw or graded coin, I may have gone about as far as I can go save for an occasional upgrade.

P.B's Grand Swiss Knights

Collect all coins above from 1795 to 1835 Over the past years I have collected this set of Switzerland coins (I call them Knights) I have found the set (which is not complete) to be extremely difficult to assemble but very rewarding Most but not all of the coins came from Switzerland sources and were raw when purchased. My comments are purely from my personal experience and do not reflect any written data. NGC has done a fantastic job grading these coins. As I find more of the required pieces I will add them to this collection.

Currently I'm focusing on the old world, nothing newer than the 18th century. Looking for presentable examples, coins that are easy to look at, not necessarily the most expensive coin out there.

4. GREAT BRITAIN, GOLD HALF-SOVEREIGNS 1817-2017, COMPLETE CIRCULATION ISSUES.
|
My main collecting interest has been on the modern coinage of Cyprus 1879-1949. During this period Cyprus was under British Administration and the "piastre coinage" made its appearance in 1879. The copper piastre became the unit of currency and was fixed at the rate of 180 to the British gold sovereign. The gold sovereign became the standard measure of value and remained the coin of unlimited legal tender throughout the period from 1878-1960. During the reign of Queen Victoria, the gold half-sovereign was also legal tender, demonetized though from the 1st May 1901. Due to this relation, after completion of the "Cyprus Piastre Coinage Collection", the collection of sovereigns and half-sovereigns became a strong challenge. So, nine years ago I started to build up this collection of gold half-sovereigns with the goal to obtain high grade examples for every year since their first issue in 1817, buying always the best that could be afforded. As the quality of the individual coins determines the strength and value of a collection, constant emphasis was given on quality and condition rarity. For some rarer and scarcer pieces though I had to compromise condition in order to fill the empty slot, hoping to upgrade as opportunity permits. However there are a few ultra rarities in these series: 1836 (R6), 1845 (R4), 1862 (R6), 1879 (R4); not a single example of these appeared in a decent condition for many years! It is true that in general half-sovereigns, especially those of the 19th Century, have become a great deal more difficult to find in uncirculated condition, even more difficult than finding uncirculated gold sovereigns. Despite this, it is really a challenge to hunt, to recognize opportunities and be prepared to strike when a piece comes up in order to fill up the empty slots with high grade coins or upgrade certain dates. "There is no substitution for quality". Although the collection is still a work in progress, contains examples from all the Reigns. All coins are NGC-certified and many of them are "Top Pop" or single finest graded, quite a few conditionally rare. Actually 2017 is more exciting because is the 200th anniversary of the "modern" half-sovereign which was first struck in 1817. During this year I managed to fill up some empty slots with new entries and make a few upgrades, so the collection reached an 81% completion. I also added, as a "guest star", a 1937 PF 66 Ultra Cameo half-sovereign of King George VI. During his reign only proof half-sovereigns were struck by the Royal Mint as part of the four coin Coronation Proof Set, with a mintage of only 5001.

Denoted by a + symbol appearing after the grade, the plus designation indicates that a coin is of superior quality for the grade and that it approaches the next technical grade level. In numismatics, in addition to plus, several terms are used interchangeably to indicate this, including premium quality, PQ and high-end.
Star Designation identifies coins with exceptional eye appeal, including vibrant, colorful toning or intense luster.
