I received two of their 1975 Vermont Coins.
Reuben Harmon, Jr. of Rupert,Vermont, designed this coin whichsome thought to be the most original,creative, & authentic American design found on our Colonial coins.
Some coins in the series portrayedGeorge III but, the best known by farwas the VERMONT coin known as“Plough money”. The front depicts afarm plow in a field against a back-ground of tree-laden mountains withthe sun rising to greet the new day.
AN EXACT REPLICAVT-1
The coins sell for $2.00 each.
Review:
I was really excited to receive these as I am big on Vermont history and most of my family has lived here for generations. I gave one of the coins to my father who is also enjoys Vermont history and he thought it was really cool. The coins are a great keepsake and collectible, I really love the protective sleeve they come in which are great for storing the coin and keeping it safe. Coins of our Past has a great selection for any history buff!
