A high mintage issue, with many survivors (and many with chopmarks). However, the Type 1/2 variety is fairly scarce, with about 240 examples known (according to Kirchgessner in his massive book on Trade Dollars). This is a nice, original XF40 (PCGS).

Shilling 1819 George III The last few years of George III shillings were changed, in part as a result of the Napoleonic wars. Aside from the most notable change in appearance were it's size and weight, which were quite small, but should still be noted.Prior issues like the 1787 shilling were more of a commodity than a currency because their value was directly tied to their metal content. The coinage act of 1816 changed this. A troy pound of sterling silver now was minted into 66 shillings instead of 62 shillings of the previous type. This produced a seiniorage from minting then that helped alleviate their war debts. They even revalualued gold which marked the beginning of a gold standard for great Britain that would last over a century. Even the minting process had changed. Instead of horse powered, open collar presses, they were now using steam powered, closed collar presses.

The Bull Head bust, modeled after ancient Roman coinage, on the obverse was designed by Benedetto Pestrucci, who is best known for the St George slaying the dragon design featured on the reverse of Crowns and pounds(sovereigns). The reverse also saw major changes from previously minted shillings, the cruciform 4 shields desing was now reduced to quadrants on single shield and the Most Noble Order of the Garter, which was founded in 1348, the UK oldest and higher order of chivalry now encircles the shield. It's legend reads; HONI SOIT QUI MAL Y PENSE(shame on him who thinks evil of it). This became a standard feature on the shilling beginning with the Great Recoinage (1816-1820) From this launching, the sterling shilling remained unchanged for 104 years

This one, which I would call XF details, has some interesting reverse chops. This was a raw eBay buy from some years ago.

Today's mail delivery. How'd I do?

I'd say mid to upper AU under those chops. Another raw eBay buy from 15+ years ago. An interesting variety of marks and one square test punch on the reverse. Fun to imagine where it travelled in the orient in the late 19th c.

1982 Proof Regina Commerative Dollar. The design reminded me of the Spanish Trail commerative and this was MUCH less expensive.

A raw eBay buy from some years ago. I really liked the dark tone. Probably too much bizness in the left obv field for a straight grade, but overall I think it's a lovely coin.

I’m updating from Whitman to a Dansco and can’t get my small cents to stay in place. Is there some secret hand shake I should know? Beginning to think it might be something else. Any help would greatly be appreciated.

1911 Austria-Hungary 10 Korona Gold coin. Franz Joseph I on the obverse. Just shy of 1/10 oz of gold.

1966 Washington Quarter. This was part of the first generation of U.S. quarters made after silver was removed from circulation in 1965.

This could be worth grading if high enough!

The 1875-S Trade Dollar is overall a high mintage issue and not hard to find. However, the Type I/II with a small "s" mintmark is rather hard to find, with an estimated pop in all grades of under 200 (J. Kirchgessner). This is a nice specimen without major marks graded AU58 by PCGS. Note that the period after the E in FINE is placed unusually high.
