Liberty Dollars/ Norfed Dollars

Do you have any of these coins?
The Norfed Dollars were produced by Bernard Von NotHaus.
He made them in an attempt to produce coinage that reflected the gold standard.
These coins/Bullion were made in $1 $2 $5 $10 and $20 silver 2 types in 2008 of $50 silver and $500 gold.
The concept started in 1992 and coins were made from 1998 to 2018.

Bernard was the co founder of the Royal Hawaiian Mint Co. The Hawaii Dalas are some that are rarely seen, You can find the designs in the link below.

These Dollars were seized from collectors due to VonHaus being charged with Federal crimes. But later in 2011 the courts released them back to their rightful owners. With expressed terminology that it was a crime to use them in commerce.

Of you have any of these Liberty Dollars please post them below.
I have attached a link so that you might be able to identify them. Most every type has at least a 1000 strikes and some of them up to 25,000 pieces.

I have 3 of these. The $5 Liberty's were only released in 2006 with a mintage of many thousands.



The $10 dollar piece was made from 1998 to 2006.
It seems from the site I included this piece is a type 2 and has a low mintage.
The sunshine mint did not mint any of the coins with less than 1000 strikes. This is 2005 #12.5 Long hair lock.



Please post yours if you have any.

I read something about them a while back, but didn't remember the design.
Thanks for the post.

 

I wonder if the 800 number still works.

 

There has been a few threads posted here on CT.

I never new that the the SMI sets were produced. Only25 states participated in the program. And a few of those states have only 100 numbered strikes.

LOL there is 2 to many numbers.
There was a 2018 restrike of the 1998 first issue $10 with out reeded edge. These have a website link on the page that no longer works.

 

Yeah…. I am a die hard US collector and saw a thread here on the NORFED silver. I rather thought the artistry was inspired so I hunted one down on EBay for just a few bucks over spot.

 

All I have are the 2016

 

You picked a good one.
According to the link

#11 2004 $20

SCARCE!

(highest auction $256 by heatherstreasures19 on 9/9/20)

This piece was minted in anticipation of rising silver prices driving the face value above $10. The short lived high prices of 2004 did not last long enough, and the move to the $20 base ounce did not happen until Thanksgiving day, 2005, so these pieces were never minted in quantity.

 

I have a few of these including the dime size $1 in silver, the $10 and $20 versions and the large $1 in copper

 

I am unable to find those anywhere. Did you find those aftermarket, or buy them direct?

 

Wow! I had no idea. Thanks Pickin’!

 

Yeah I bought those direct back in 2016,check them out here.

 

I wonder how those tie into the Liberty Norfed dollars.
The page says they only made the Ron Paul.

I sent an email off to the guy who put the page together.
Hopefully I get an answer.

 

It was designed by Bernard von NotHaus, the monetary architect of the Liberty Dollar.

 

My response was the same.
from my email:

They were done by BVNH.

 

there is a plethora available on ebay from 24.95 upwards of thousands of $$$ for complete sets

 

I wouldn't mind having one of each denomination. Except the Gold of course. But I would rather buy them in hand than over the internet.

 

Found a pic

 

Ok, found a couple more

 

I stumbled across the copper one so I took a pic
