Number of Required Coins : 4 Current Finest Possible Set Rating
: 63.182 View Set Composition This Georgia branch mint started
striking coins in 1838, the same year that Charlotte and New
Orleans began their production. The Civil War ended all coinage
from these three Southern mints with only New Orleans ever
striking coins after 1861. Only gold dollars, quarter eagles,
three dollars, and half eagles were struck in Dahlonega and they
have been popular with collectors for years. The key to the
basic type set is the three dollar issue, as they were struck
only in 1854, are extremely rare in Uncirculated condition, and
excessively rare with full dentils. The other denominations are
available, but all are scarce to rare in Uncirculated condition.
The issues from this extremely popular branch mint have been
widely collected for years, as noted, but there are enough of
them to go around to complete this set. © 1999 - 2013 Collectors
