5$ Gold Eagle 1/10 Oz Roman Numeral Year Coin

5$ Gold Eagle 1/10 Oz Roman Numeral Year Coin

HI what your bidding on is a Beautiful $5 dollar Walking liberty Gold 1/10th ounce coin.

This is a very special coin since the date is in roman numerals!!! It is a  MCMLXXXVI - 1986

Question: What Does MCMLXXXVI Mean on My Gold Coin?

I have a gold coin from the U.S. that has a denomination of $5, $10, $25, or $50 but the gold coin has no date on it. Instead it has something like MCMLXXXVI. What does this mean?

Answer:

During the first few years of the American Eagle gold coin program, the U.S. Mint did not use standard dates on the coins. Instead, the date was given in Roman numerals. Here is a breakdown of the dates on these gold coins and their corresponding years in our more familiar Arabic numerals:

MCMLXXXVI - 1986MCMLXXXVII - 1987MCMLXXXVIII - 1988MCMLXXXIX - 1989MCMXC - 1990MCMXCI - 1991

Beginning in 1992, the dates on U.S. gold coins began appearing in normal digits.

Classic U.S. Gold Coins With No Date

In 1907, the U.S. Mint issued both high relief and ultra-high relief double eagle gold coins designed by legendary sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens. These coins also had Roman numeral dates on them, which appear as MCMVII. The 1907 gold coins with Roman numerals are extremely rare.

All gold is getting increasingly hard to get since all foreign counrties are stocking up on gold bullion!!!

Thus creating a shortage that will drive gold priceses through the roof, an estimated 2500$ an ounce by 2012!!
