John Reich is my favorite US coin designer. He designed many of the US Bust coins between Robert Scott and Christian Gobrecht. There is plenty of info available on him – check out a search…there is even a John Reich Society (http://www.jrcs.org/default.html - actually they are not just about Reich coins).

Here is my humble John Reich type set. All lower grades and missing the gold issues, but beautiful to me nonetheless.

lol @ "when I hit the lottery"

That's a terrific set. I really love the designs. Thanks for sharing. Keep your fingers crossed on that lottery thing - somebody has to win.

That's hilarious !!!

Very nice type collection

I really like that 1833 you have there. I must agree that those are some of the best designed coins.

Great coins and a great idea for a type set. I really like the bust coins...as if you couldn't tell by my handle.

I hadn't ever thought about calling this subset a type set but it is interesting.

Here are a few of mine.

Absolutely terrific coins! That 1809 half cent is particularly beautiful. Do you have the large cent (the 1817 isn't Reich)? You thinking about getting some of the gold examples?

thx for sharing

Very nice coins.Congrats to all.

Very nice coins. Good luck on that Lottery

Man, oh, man...envy, envy, envy.

Opps, caught that did you?

Try this one.

As for gold, even if I had the money I just don't like gold coins (or gold anything else for that matter) so I won't be adding any.

Great coins I think I have quite a few of those "lottery coins" myself!

Yeah! There it is!

wow! those are beautiful!

Any updates for us, Syzygy?

Yeah...I still haven't hit the lottery.

Beautiful coins. I've been waiting on hitting that Lottery thing myself.
