Hello fellow YNs and YNH!

The traditional silver dollar came back after the Bland-Allison act. The new dollar was to be designed by a student of William M. Wyon in London. His name is George T Morgan, and the dollar he designed is one of the most popular in the coin collecting community. Most of you probably know what it looks like, and if you don't look it up. I think I got one from completing the dollar project last year. Anyway, it was minted between the years 1878 and 1921 and the people liked it more than the trade dollar, so it became the new official dollar coin. An interesting fact about the Morgan dollar is that if you have an uncirculated one, it has a reflective surface so the metal reflects a small amount of light.�The peace dollar, minted between 1921 and 1935, was a coin commemorating peace after World War I. It was the first dollar coin to not have congressional sanction, instead under the terms of the Pitman act. On the obverse there is lady liberty as well as the words liberty and in God we trust. On the reverse is an eagle, the mint mark (if present) and the words United States of America, e pluribus unum, one dollar. It is the first dollar coin to be struck in the three current mints: Philadelphia, Denver, and San FranciscoThe Eisenhower dollar is the first dollar coin to have a real person on it. From 1971 to 1978, the Eisenhower dollar was minted to honor both Dwight D Eisenhower and the first landing on the moon. As you may know, the president himself is on the adverse with an eagle and the moon on the reverse. To celebrate America's Bicentennial, a new reverse was minted only in 1976. It had the Liberty Bell and the moon on it. In 1977 and 1978, the design went back to the original.The Anthony �Dollar was minted for four years; 1979, 1980, 1981, and 1999. When I saw one, I thought it was a quarter because of its size. The reverse is the same as the Eisenhower, and the obverse has Anthony on it. The Sacajawea dollar, minted from 2000 to 2008, exemplifies the spirit of liberty, freedom, and peace that the young Native American woman Sacajawea had shown in assisting the Lewis and Clark expedition. The obverse is Sacajawea herself and the reverse is an eagle.�The native American dollar also features Sacajawea, but has different reverses honoring Native American cultures. The president dollar coins have former presidents on the obverse and their achievements on the reverse. If you want to know about one dollar bullion coins, please read my modern silver coins in 450 words blog because I don't feel like putting it here.Anyways, I hope you liked it it will read more 450 words in the future.Bibliography:A guide book of United States coins by R.S Yeoman et. al. 71st edition

This should have been in my last blog but I didn't think of including more information about the artist who created the design of the reverse Type II AGE's.

Hey Everybody! This is everything numismatic that is going through my head right now. So, without further ado...1) What is with the US Mint's packing?Have y'all gotten your hands on the new Type 2 Silver Eagles Yet? Well, point aside, the coin is pretty, let us tell you that. However, the packing IS THE DEFINITION OF CHEAP. No more nice little container that contains the felt-lined box. Now, the packing is what they use for the commemorative half dollars- open, felt lined little piece of JUNK, and a cardboard cover. Disappointing.�2) Why does the US Mint make us wait 5 months for a coin?I have asked myself this many times as I wait for our coins to arrive via Snail Mail. The US Mint is very fond of placing out little coins for early (yes, very early) preorder, then making the numismatic faithful wait months. Groan. Stop this cruel practice, and only set your coins to order when you can dish them out right away.�3) Olympics!With the Tokyo Olympics going on right now, I decided to set the overpriced- fat cat Olympics to scale for the lay person (forgive me, but after hours on the couch watching China beat everybody in Ping Pong, this was one of the few things I was thinking about.�As on June 2021, the price was set at 26 Billion. Wow! Now imagine each dollar as a penny, which is about 1.52 mm thick, and weighs about 2.5 grams. Now please dig out those calculators. The final height of the stupid pile of penny we hoarded: 24,556.59 Miles, towering over every building in Tokyo, including the SkyTree and Tower, combined. That should place an Olympic-sized dent into the ground.�Now, for the weight- at 2.5 grams, and 26 billion of those little suckers, should weigh about 65,000 Metric Tons. Dropped on someone's head would surely be fatal, and punch a nice hole through the Earth. You know what else weighs 65,000 tons? Over 9,000 Elephants. So, Tokyo is spending the equivalent of over 9,000 Elephants, and with no spectators helping to off-set some of those elephants, we can imagine that can get pretty heavy!Thanks Everyone!�
