Now all we have to do is some how keep this going. 1783 anyone? Next coins in lower 1700 dates I have is 1772, 1765, 1762, 1740

My collection is pretty slim when it comes to 18th Century - 1763, 1767, 1772. Out of those, last 2 are Thalers and the first is a 5 Russian Kopecks.

Notes are allowed, as well, correct?

Anything numismatic allowed!!

.

....1783 Spanish 8 Reales....from the shipwreck El Cazador in 1784....legend has it this shipment of bullion was to go to help fund the spanish territory of "Louisiana", but when the ship sank, the Spanish lost its stronghold, and later had to sell the land to France, who in turn sold it to us (USA) in 1803.....otherwise I might be speaking "Frenchy french" right now! (here in Oklahoma!!!)

1782 écu aux lauriers, holey and beat up, but it's a 1782!!!!

Hibernian 1/2 cent -- beaten & holed, but 1781 nonetheless!

I'm tempted to post a 1780 thaler, but it's one of the restrikes, if everyone is okay with that I will post it though, lol.

Downward!

I just lost out on a piece like that on ebay. About 2 weeks ago, I think. It would be a great coin to have.

Oops - I do have a 1771. I'll post it tomorrow unless someone else wants to jump in.

Denmark 1 skilling 1771. Clawed by angry hedgehogs.

1770

This one has seen its better days.

1769 liard à la vieille tête of Louis XV

1768, I'm out for a few years...1760 I think.

1767 écu au bandeau du Béarn of Louis XV

Heh... he looks like Richard Lewis, the comedian

Actually, Louis XV does look kind of funny in these portraits (besides looking like Richard Lewis). He looks a little puffy around the mouth... I wonder if he wore wooden dentures like Geo Washington, whose formal oil portraits by Stuart usually show the denture bulges...

Really DOES look like Richard Lewis....LOL

Bump




Next coins I have are 1765 and 1762

1766 ANYONE????

My next is a 1763.

1765 and 1762 for me.

I have a Greek ancient...

My next one's 1764.

We'll roll if we can find a 1766.........

I motion that if someone can post coins with certifiable dates that ADD to 1766, that counts.

Anyone have a 1765 dated coin and a year 1 dated coin?

Or alternatively,
Im waiting for 1719 so how about gxseries, moderator and fellow collector, has a 1766 on omnicoin
Im sure its cheating but...

I vote we add this one in to keep things moving along. Although it's not one of our personal coins, it is one of our fellow CPer's, who I'm sure wouldn't mind helping out.

Someone please contact him/her!!!!!
