ASE’s? The 1995-W Proof is expensive in a 70.

The 2006-W RP AGE too, but not as bad?.

Or the v75.
I’ve probably missed some!?

Looks like the “Liberty” series might have a following. Not a legal tender – but so what. Artistically amazing designs and a low mintage series – yeah!

Wonder if there will be any surprises with the latest sales figures for the FHG coin (24YG)?

Agree, but one with a privy, if you could get it, would set you back a lot more. Plus the big bonus, a worthless autograph. Besides, I never trust people who use a lower case letter instead of a capital when signing their name.

Since his issues are not legal tender, what about bitcoin? I don’t understand how bitcoin can be legal tender. In imagination we trust?

It’s been estimated that amongst the 2 differing silver dollars issued or struck in 1795, they produced a little over 203K in total. The 2 types struck were the “Flowing Hair” and “Draped Bust”, of which production began in October of 1795, for the latter. Apparently US Mint records indicate there were 1,758 FH Type $1’s produced in 1,794, with a possibility of another 5-6K struck in 1795 bearing the 1794 date. Total FH Ag $1’s struck in 1795 indicate a total of 160,295.(Stack’s Bowers) Two different major varieties exist for the 1795 Flowing Hair $1, a 2 leaves and a 3 leaves variety. Established, simply by looking at the leaf clusters. With the 1794, of the 1,758, roughly about 130 are known, making this a major rarity and prohibitively expensive to say the least. Production of the 1794 were not well struck, due to the press used being to small to allow for sharp strikes and production was halted. So, a larger press was ordered and then put into use for the 1795 versions, which as noted above, have much sharper strikes in addition to a much greater mintage, allowing for greater availability as well as quality for any possibly considering this issue for a Type set. Today, it has been estimated there are less than 4,000 1795 Flowing Hair Silver dollars still in existence. Hope this brief(for me, LOL, pre PS note, haha) synopsis, fills in a few “blanks” for some who may have wondered a bit more about this issue. PS Some, may also find the below link interesting, if unfamiliar with Daniel Carr and his Moonlight Mint. He uses a surplus Grabener Press he purchased from the US Mint in Denver. He’s sold out, however he produced fantasy 1792 and 1793 Flowing Hair silver $1 examples! *Note, he definitively states: “Do not attempt to use these as legal tender. This product is NOT endorsed or approved by the US Mint, US Treasury, or US Government.” It’s good to educate oneself about what you may stumble upon in any given marketplace IMO. BTW, China has been counterfeiting Moonlight Mint, Daniel Carr offerings, so be careful out there!
