The Aristocrat

The Story of the 1793 Sheldon 15

 

A new book has been written for the collectors of Early American copper coinage by veteran numismatist Jim Neiswinter.

The book chronicles the story, not only of a single coin, but a single variety of that coin, the Sheldon 15.

 

This is a rather specialized book. It is about just one of the more than 300 known varieties of early United States cents, which were coined between 1793 and 1814.  It is the second-rarest "collectible" variety in the series, with only twelve known.

I think I have written the type of book I have always wanted to read. It includes history, folklore and stories on this rare variety of 1793 cent.   Jim Neiswinter, Author.
