CNN: Killing the penny was just the start. Trump is rewriting the rules on America’s coins (archive) (lite)

The US Mint on Thursday released [archive] the final coin designs for historical quarters celebrating the country’s 250th birthday next year. Rather than the fight against slavery or giving women the vote, the designs primarily honored a more homogeneous view of US history: George Washington for the Revolutionary War, Thomas Jefferson and the Declaration of Independence, James Madison and the Constitution, Abraham Lincoln and the Gettysburg Address, as well as pilgrims to celebrate the Mayflower Compact.

To celebrate America's SemiQ in 2026, the Mint will be updating well-known American coinage, such as the circulating dime, whose design has not changed in 80 years. The circulating quarter will feature five new designs related to American history. These coins, as well as the circulating nickel, will have a “1776 ~ 2026” dual date.

There will be a new circulating Liberty Dime for 2026 only, and other cool stuff:










The half-dollar above is non-circulating. There's also a non-circulating penny for what that's worth (nothing!):

In trying to round out my WWII coinage collection (scans to come if I ever manage to do such a thing) I bought a lot which included some (pretty beat up) banknotes which I never thought I'd collect personally, but now that I've held them I might just get into notaphily.

• 100 Mark 1908
• 100 Reichsmark 1935
• 100 Mark 1910
• 1,000,000,000 Marks 1923 (overprint on unissued 1000 Mark 1922)

A milliard (US billion) marks wasn't even the highest note printed, that would be the Hundert Billionen Mark 1924 (or US 100 trillion marks)

Those dimes look cool as shit. A half dollar is basically pointless in this day of age though. Trump should have honestly axed the nickel as well.

2018 coin commemorating 100 years of Ukrainian stamps with (presumably) a replica of Ukrainian People's Republic stamp on one side.

Follis of Constantine I. I'll try and see if I can research it. The reverse shows two soldiers holding standards,, presumably representing two armies. These small base metal coins are fascinating.

Now those designs are some proper Americana that harkens back to the 20th century. It's a nice break from all those DEI American Women quarters and the like that they've been making for the last few years.

I might actually buy a 2026 proof set now. I hope they bring back the penny in bronze as a collector's item and have a special design for that and the nickel too.

Irish 6 pence

Imagine the gall of some on Ebay to ask big sums for the last.

All from a plastic bag

Denarius of Vespasian. Obverse has Titus and Domitian facing.

Here are the coins of that WWII lot I mentioned I bought, along with the few coins I'm keeping from a charity auction lot. The rest from the latter will be given a disinfectant scrub and added to my niece's play shop till.

 

[Markka maniac]

my most recent coin auction wins. I'm in love with the proof like finnish() on that 100 markka coin.

 

[Randy Butternubs]

One of my most recent acquisitions is this really strange $1 Furniture Shop token. Stoked to be able to add this oddity to my collection.

1801
Paul I - 2 Kopeks




1906 German 1/2 Mark

1941 French Tunisian 1 Franc




1936 German 2 Mark




1923 Westphalia 10,000 Mark coin token (local token notes and coin are contemporary to German hyperinflation)




1954 Saarland Mark. Saarland was an independent territory split from German, then West German for a decade. It had a quite successful soccer team and its own currency. It disappeared as a semi independent state with a 1959 Plebiscite and became again a German federal state.

This 1911 full and 1908 Sovereign were probably bought a while back. Now that money (let's pretend the pre COVID USD and Euro were as one and forget that silver has industrial applications in these resource wars present) will barely cover the price of a troy oz silver coin.

Pair of commemorative Ukrainian rounds or proof coin.






Follis of Justinian, Constantinople mint:

25 Rubles of Tsar Alexander II with 1909 as the date. Yet his hapless successor Nicholas II was Tsar




Ruble 1897, Nicholas II




1918 500 Hyrvnia of the Ukrainian People's Republic.

Barely 10 years and the Tsars were replaced by an array of hopeful new polities, and an array of generals, plus the Bolsheviks clinging on in both Moscow and the old Imperial capital of Petrograd.

Some mints like Venice can be more valuable than what was for a trade coin in the Middle East and elsewhere. I've two, probably restrikes. Some older MTT's have a differing portrait, like below, which is a 1762 Hungarian Thaler for sale on Ebay. Honestly the merchant seems a bit expensive.



German, specifically Breslau, 3 Kreuzer from 1669.




5 Kopek of Tsarina Catherine II 'the Great', a partitioner of Poland and annexer of Crimea. It's a big coin.
