Hello it's been a long time since my last post on this forum. I'm still very interested in old west history and especially in the coins of old west. Please can you tell me based on your finds or some numismatic knowledge coins from which mints circulated in the old west area most frequently ? Was it San Francisco, New Orleans, Carson City or Philadelphia ? From what I know I suppose that most coins found in Western USA or Another states west of Mississippi like Texas,Oklahoma,Kansas,Nebraska,South and North Dakota is from San Francisco and Carson City mint. Less of them bear New Orleans mintmark - more of theese maybe could be found in Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas. I think that of finds from Philadelphia mint are less than coins from other mints. Is my theory correct ? Please tell me something about this issue and teach me
Please bear in mind that I'm talking about silver coins from old west era. I know that coins like IHD pennies were all minted in Philadelphia except 1908,1909 for San Francisco so even in the west this is the only mint where they are coming from.
