US Minted Coins Lead the World, It's the American Way

Robin Williams illustrates his love for his country creating a work of art by expressing his thought as if He is our American Flag. It's worth the time to watch this video with pride for our country and understand what we stand for as a nation. We need to remember the fallen soldiers and leaders that paved the way for us to maintain our freedoms and individuality that our god has provided us this great soil we call, "The United States of America".

We're a great country and the people of the United States must not waiver who we are and how we do it! For the past 90 to 100 years we have protected the weak and the starving people throughout the world by providing military support, financial support, individual autonomy and valuable resources, such as, food and our people to help make life's worth living.

Our U.S. Minted coins are looked very similar around the world as a valuable collection of significantly beautiful coins that represent much more to them than just a gold or silver coin. Each one of these affirms our beliefs for our individual freedoms and autonomy. These principles that we as Americans hold dear to our hearts our held in high regard throughout the world as well. Do not believe the rhetoric of the Islamic Fundamentalists and the small percentage of the world's populace that wishes for our demise. Old Glory holds true a popular symbol of our country as a better way of life to be lived.

Morgan’s will the Wild, Wild West for Collectors back into our boring lifes!

The #1 collectible coin of all time, the fabulous Morgan Silver Dollar, a big one ounce silver coin minted for the very first time in 1878, and designed by the very famous George T Morgan. This coin is a true symbol of our rich heritage and a bridge back to these exciting days of the “Wild West”.
Morgan’s tightly curled hair version of lady liberty on the obverse is distinct among all other liberty designed coins. The majestic eagle on the reverse with its wings spread and its feathers shimmering with silver, is a true symbol of our country’s love of freedom. The arrows and olive branch in its talons exemplify our strong sense of place and protection in this great country of ours.
Collector’s love to put together type sets, mint mark sets, year date sets and the very difficult complete set of the magical Morgan Silver Dollar.

Join the fun and begin the coin collecting game with Morgan's!

An Historic Day Americans Remember…

We have a coin that I wish everyone in America would own, however, there are only a handful of these coins available. It is of the greatest artifacts of commemoration in U.S. History.

Do you remember what you were doing the day that we were attacked? I’m talking about Sept. 11, 2001. Most of us hold a vivid picture in our mind of exactly what we were doing that day, right down to the smallest detail. But did you know that there was a (don’t ever forget) treasure certified to have been in those buildings on that fateful day.

Yes, it’s true. Investors stored a very small amount of coins in a vault in the World Trade Center. That vault, and those coins ended up approximately two floors below ground level after the building came crashing down.

About a week and a half later, the vault was found! When the vault was opened, the workers carefully picked up the coins and turned them over to Brinks armored trucks for security staff to move to an appropriate, safe location. You know of the famous Brinks trucks… Right? Those coins were taken directly to the number one certification company in the world, Professional Coin Grading Service (PCGS)! If the valuable coins weren’t taken by security, they would have never been able to be certified that they had been in the World Trade Center on that infamous day in history.

But because they were, PCGS was able to certify, encapsulate and seal each of the few coins and certify that in fact these are truly the only artifacts certified to have been in the WTC on Sept. 11th 2001.
The certification inside the sealed holder describes the coin and is marked, Ground Zero Recovery, 9-11-01.

Since that time the standing theme has been “ Lest We Never Forget.” I believe these coins will go down in history as one of the most highly collectible coins ever certified for United States Commemoratives.

Lady Liberty Showed to much skin

By Jim Fisher

The Standing Liberty Quarter is a very famous and desired coin by collectors. This beautiful coin was minted for the very first time in 1916 and through the roaring 20’s till 1930. The U.S. Mint always seems to be destined for drama or to some degree create a scandal of the new coins they release.

Well, this holds true for the Standing Liberty Quarter too. It turns out that the designer Herman A. MacNeil did a beautiful rendition of Liberty holding a shield for protection in her left hand, and a exceptional job ever famous sign of peace, the olive branch in her right hand. However, Mr. MacNeil somehow left the breast of Lady Liberty exposed. Of course, this created a tremendous uproar among the public and they demanded a more acceptable clothed Ms. Liberty.

Finally in 1917, the U.S. Mint made the adaption and covered her breast with her gown all the way up to her neckline. Oh, and by the way the U.S. mint rearranged the stars on the reverse side of the coin. Then, in 1925 they completed the last alteration on the beautiful collector’s coin when the U.S. Mint realized the date on the bottom of the obverse side of the coin was rubbing away, thus leaving little visibility of the date or if any at all. So, in 1925, they recessed the date into the coin for a lasting impression.

Catch the Famous "V" where the US was mistaken...

Here's an intriguing story where the US Mint actually refuses to take fault for it's easily mistaken identity.

The liberty head or otherwise known as the very famous V Nickel was designed by the Mint Director Charles Barber way back in 1883. The coin was put to heavy use through 1913 and was replaced by the the famous, Buffalo Nickel. One of my favorite coin stories comes from that first year issue V Nickel, in 1883. The U.S. Mint actually refuses to admit to it, but they forgot to put the word cents under the V on the reverse side of the coin. It turns out that this nickel was the same size as the five dollar liberty gold minted during that same time. It also had a very similar design on both the obverse side and reverse of the coin.

Because of this mistake, crooks plated the V Nickel with gold, and then, they would pass them off as five dollar gold coins. Finally, the mint got wise and started striking the coins with the word cents on the reverse side. This simple and necessary change saved alot of money and time lost from those honest merchants.

Jim's Making Collecting Coins Sexy and Cool

by Jim Fisher

Hello Coin Aficianados to First-Time Collectors,

I must say that over the past 22 years I have met some very eccentric and interesting people that collect coins. Each one of these avid collectors, serious numismatists, or newbies had specific coins they liked best and for very different reasons. The energy and passion they speak of these and other coins provides me great excitement to get up everyday with anticipation to hear the next story of why people love a certain coin or set of coins. Every coin utilized from the ancient times through today all have interesting stories to tell and the presence of these underlying stories of the era, and the times the coin came into existense.

I am so excited about the opportunity to share my knowledge about US Minted coins, World coins, Ancient coins, treasure coins, plus, available commerative coin sets and the rarest, scarcest coins in the world. My love for coin collecting has driven me to begin my Preferred Coin Expert blog and the creation of my business Precious Metal Advocates. It's allowing me the chance to meet and share with a great number a people how sexy and cool these coins really are and the value to begin collecting coins now. So today I will begin my historical walk through of my reveiw of the US Mint, and the highly desirable coins they have created since their creation by our government.

Let's begin our tour of some of the most beautiful coins ever created.

The first, a Fugio Cent. This coin is one of the very first coins minted by our U.S. government. It was designed by one of America's favorite founding fathers, Benjamin Franklin. The obverse featured a sundial and the sun along with the year, 1787. Also, the famous word "FUGIO" (I Fly), and the legend that said, "Mind your business". Whereas, the reverse featured 13 linked circles with the legends "we are one"and "United States". This cent is also known as the Ben Franklin Cent.

Another collector's favorite is the famous three-cent Nickel. Yes, a three cent nickel! The nickel does not necessarily mean five cents. In this case, it happens to be the type of metal used to produce this coin. This beautiful coin was minted between 1865 - 1889 and was designed by the very well known James B. Longacre.

The three cent pieces had originally been minted in silver, however there were so many people hoarding silver they decided to the mint the coin in copper and nickel. Thus, giving it the name the Three Cent Nickel.
Oh, by the way, the reason for the denomination of three cents was due to the fact that postage stamps went from two to three cents. A great historical coin to be sure.

At least three days a week I will be sharing these very informational, fun facts about our US Mint and the coins they create for our enjoyment and for commerce.

Contact myself or one of my Preferred Customer Advocates at 1-888-566-6468or email me at pmasales@pmacoins.com. I am anxiously awaiting your call to talk to numismatists, coin collectors or first time collectors around the globe about their collections, how I may help them obtain rare, scarce or specialty coins for their collections or anything else about coins. Please use my 22 years of experience as a Precious Metal Expert and the solid relationships around the globe I have developed over that time to find you buyers for your collections, provide professional appraisal services and/or buy collectibles I have for your valued purchase.
