Finland, 1st Free 25 Pennia Unc

Finland was under Russian rule from about 1809 on, and it was not until 1917 that it gained its independence. We have some of the first coins to be issued by Finland as a Free country. These 1917 25 Pennia look just like the coins issued by Russia for Finland, with one little change. If you look on the side with the double-headed eagle you will notice, for the first time, that the Russian crown is no longer evident between the eagles two heads. This removal of the crown celebrated Finland’s freedom and independence. These Silver 25 Pennia coins dated 1917 are in Uncirculated condition and are now 100 years old. A rather nice and historically important coin and in Uncirculated condition.

Finland, (Free of Russian Occupation) 25 Penna Unc

What most people don’t know is that Finland only became a free and independent country in 1917. Before then it was under the control of Russia. Here we present the 25 Penna issued by Finland as a free nation. The difference was, under Russian rule, it had a double-headed eagle with a crown on the coin. The same coin was then issued by a Free Finland without the crown on the double-headed eagle. The coin is struck in silver, it is over 100 years and it's in Extremely Fine or better condition. Finland was only able to gain its freedom because Russia itself was caught in the middle of a revolution. A fantastic high-grade silver coin issued after Finland became an independent nation. Add it to your collection!

United States of America, Quarter 1976 Clad Proof S

In 1976, the United States celebrated the bi-centennial of gaining freedom from…. the US! Yes, it was over two hundred years ago that the two nations split, fiscally but not emotionally. The US Mint made new designs for the 25c, 50c and $1 coins. We knew we had some of the 1976 Quarters or 25c pieces in Proof, the only problem was finding them? Well, 4-5 years later, here they are. We never lose anything, but we do misplace the odd coin or two. You have a drummer beating his drum with a flame in a circle behind. It is a one year design, Choice Proof coins, struck in cupronickel by the US Mint and finally available to you again!

1921 Morgan Dollar Extremely Fine_obv

United States of America, 1921 Morgan Silver Dollar Extremely Fine

This American Silver Dollar was named after its British engraver, George T. Morgan. The Morgan Dollar was first made in 1878 and last made in 1904. Then in 1921 for some reason, they got the old dies out, made them look a bit more modern, and struck another Morgan Silver Dollar. The last Morgan dollar… Until last year when they issued a 2021 Morgan Dollar and the price skyrocketed. Now they say that they cannot get enough blanks and this year’s issue is canceled! It all sounds a bit crazy, so we looked around and found out we had some of the original the 1921 Silver Morgan Dollar, the one-year type. These are nice large silver coins and are now 101 years old, offered in Extremely fine condition. Don't miss out, get one for your collection.
