The world's oldest living person passed away yesterday: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sus...ushatt_JonesJones was one of only two living people who were born in the 1800s, being born on July 6, 1899. She attributed her longevity to good, clean living. With her death, the oldest living person is now Emma Morano, born November 7, 1899. Let's honor miss Jones and celebrate miss Morano's new title with coins from their birth year.   Edited by Finn235

Good thread idea! I probably have more coins from 1899, but for now here are two of my pocket pieces.   |

1899 O Morgan MS64PL - For a common date the 99 O is hard to find in PL or DMPL. If you can find one in PL or DMPL, the price is very reasonable. It is a PL and DMPL sleeper that does not get much attention. For example, NGC has graded 56,564 in MS and only 197 in PL.   |
