 Silver US 1933 Walking Liberty Half Dollar Coin San Francisco Mint In 1933 the US mint only made silver half dollars in the San Francisco mint.  They made 1.786 million of these Walking Liberty 50 cent pieces in the S mint and this was after a break of 3 years.  The previous year of production for these was 1929.  Silver was continually used comprising 90 percent of this coin or in measurement terms .3617 ounces of the precious metal.  The mintage isn’t that high and they were only made in one mint that year.  This coin was struck in arguably the worse year of the Great Depression and there weren't a large supply of coin minted in general. Walking Liberty Halves began in the year 1916 and I would say their design is the most memorable of any US 50 cent piece in the 20th century.  Certain silver Walking Liberty Half Dollars are keydates can command large premiums especially those with very low mintages (especially in uncirculated grades).  A compl...

 This post will take a look at an1837 Liberty Head Hard Times Token.  On the front is Lady Liberty flanked by stars on each side with American motto in latin words E Pluribus Unum.  The bottom of the obverse displays the year 1837.  During this period in US history a depression was going on and tokens like this were used as money (hence why it is called a Hard Times token).  On the reverse is the phrase "MILLIONS FOR DEFENSE NOT ONE CENT FOR TRIBUTE."  This was coined by Robert Goodloe Harper in the late 1700s in defiance of a request of bribes by Talleyrand (French Foreign Minister) in order to negotiate.  Apparently this wasn't something out of the ordinary for Talleyrand to request, American diplomats were offended.  The Quasi War occurred shortly afterwards and lasted for a couple of years.

In this post we have a US 290 10 cent stamp Hardships of Emigration from the Trans-Mississippi Expo Issue. this It is used as you'll notice the cancellation on it.  Perhaps not the best looking cancellation but these generally don't.  As far as the centering, it appears to be very good. The theme of this stamp is of a family emigrating to the Western United State in a covered wagon and in this case dealing with problem with one of their horses.

This post is about the topic of a 1927 US Air Mail C10 Lindbergh Stamp unused.  It commemorates Charles Lindbergh being the first aviator to do a nonstop solo transatlantic (among other first things). He completed it in 33 and half hours.   The plane used for this venture was called the Spirit of St. Louis which has a single engine aircraft monoplane built by a T.C. Ryan.  Lindbergh's flight inspired the increased use of airplanes for transport purposes.

This post will examine a 1976 Greek 20 Drachma coin which can be looked at in the photographs at the end of this entry.  Its condition appears to be that of extra fine. I rather enjoy the design which has on its front an image of The Parthenon which is an ancient building in Athens, Greece which was built to honor the mythological goddess Athena.  On the bottom of the front is the date and the words: EAAHNIKH AEMOKPATIA which in English means the Greek Democracy.    Also notice the word: APAXMAI which is the name of the currency, in English: Drachma.  The back of this coin has a helmeted Pericles who was a noteworthy politician and general and who was born about 500 years BC.  Pericles contributions to the ancient Athenian Empire were profound, not only from a military standpoint but also from an educational one as he promoted the arts and literature.  This coin is constructed out of a combination of copper and nickel.  Its weight is 11 grams an...
