Welcome to Early United States Coins...
Recent NewsAn update on:
Early United States Half Dollars Volume 2 1807-1821 Due to life events and other factors, it has taken much longer to complete the next volume than was expected. However, work continues and is progressing.
The layout and design aspects are mostly complete, with most of the plate coin pictures processed. Current tasks are the attribution descriptions and the sorting out of the obverse and reverse die stages for the last few dates. Once these are completed for every die marriage, various other areas will need attention, including the beginning and end sections of the book. At present, it is going to be over 575 pages of bust half info! At this time I can not state an accurate completion date as to when it will be done and to the printer, but hope to have completed it by the end of 2021. As the end approaches, an announcement will be made asking for pre-orders. In the meantime, if anyone has any information or interesting die stages that they would like to share, feel free to e-mail by Clicking Here. The Latest Edition
