Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every coin collector knows about the United States Mint's American Eagle bullion coins. But did you know that the Mint has produced more than 150 other collectible works of silver and gold bullion since the national Bicentennial in 1976? They include some of the most beautiful coins and medals ever engraved for the United States. Some were runaway best-sellers and made national headlines. Others are well-kept secrets. Many are sought by collectors and investors around the globe. Some are "sleepers" - underappreciated treasures with great potential waiting to be discovered. Now, award-winning author Dennis Tucker shares years of research and unique perspective in a colorful exploration of these amazing pieces of Americana. He takes you behind the scenes at the U.S. Treasury, into the engraving department of the U.S. Mint and the chambers of Congress, even to the White House, where questions about the nation's precious metals have been argued for generations. Inside you'll find a richly illustrated history of silver and gold in the coinage of colonial America and the United States. You'll see why silver and gold were difficult for the average American to acquire through most of our history. Learn about the American Arts gold medallion program of the early 1980s, and the U.S. Mint's recent American Buffalo, First Spouse, and America the Beautiful bullion programs. Bicentennial gold medals, the 2014 gold Kennedy half dollar, 1916-2016 centennial gold coins, silver Wildlife Refuge Service medals, the 9/11 national medal, and other important modern productions all are cataloged and described inside. Along the way Tucker shines light on a thousand people, places, and points in American history: military heroes and famous artists, awe-inspiring landmarks, fearless innovators, dreamers and doers.

This book was released on 2019-02-08 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Catalogue of Coins, Medals, Tokens, Etc., Including Rare, Ancient and Modern Coins and Medals, American, Colonial and Continental Coins; A Collection of Washington Coins, Medals and Tokens, Many Very Scarce: To Be Sold at Auction Friday, April 12, 1907 Persons interested in historical subjects, even though they take no particular interest in Numismatics, will find much to interest them in the following Catalogue, made up of consignments which have been sent to us by various collectors. Medals and coins are almost indestructible historical records, outlasting all books and manuscripts. To coins alone we are indebted for many pages of history that would otherwise be blank, and for authentic portraits of some of the most noted characters in history of which there is no other record. In this sale special mention should be made of the massive ancient Roman as, the earliest and most remarkable of all Roman coins. This specimen weighs nearly ten ounces. Silver and copper coins of Alexander the Great, Julius Caesar, Marc Antony, Brutus; Nero, and various other rulers down to Napoleon, are represented; also a variety of the early gold, silver and copper coins and paper money of the United States, as well as scarce American Colonial pieces. Especial mention should be made of the collection of coins, medals and tokens struck in honor of George Washington, which includes rare old medals by Twigg, Manley, Wyon, West wood and Eccleston; a silver medal worn in the funeral procession, and the very rare silver medal struck in 1808 by the Benevolent Society of New York. The Lincoln collection is varied, and includes scarce and inter esting pieces. Recent inquiry has developed the fact that the coin dealers throughout the country have practically no Lincoln medals in stock; nor can they get any, the subject and demand being seemingly equally great. Lincolniana of all kinds will surely enhance in value and have a special interest at this time in view of the proximity of the centennial of Lincoln's birth. The group of coins, medals and tokens of the Napoleon family also will be found interesting. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
