I am very fond of ships on coins.
I know that many people share this fondness. I have a few coins depicting ships.
So, I will post a series called "Ships on Coins" and I will show all the coins that I have on this theme.
There will be no order of presentation or country of issue. As the coins are stored in several places, I will simply search on each place and publish those that I found.
The twenty first is a 2007-P $1 "Jamestown".
Along with a $5 gold coin, the 2007 Jamestown Silver Dollar was issued to mark the 400th anniversary of the settlement at Jamestown, Virginia. Three ships, the Susan Constant, Godspeed, and Discovery carried 105 settlers to the New World to establish the first permanent English settlement in what would become America.
The coin was made of 90% silver and weights 26.73g.
The reverse features an image of the Susan Constant, Godspeed, and Discovery .
The reverse was designed by Susan Gamble and sculpted by Charles Vickers.

I see the fourth ship in the background. There is a BU MS69, 2007-P $1 "Jamestown", Modern Commemoration Silver Dollar in the Local Coin Shop display case. It is one of my favorites, in this Modern US Silver Dollars Series. What would be a good price? Thanks again, ronavel.
You did not say, but I suppose that this coin was graded by PCGS or NGC. An average value would be around $42.
I could not find this fourth ship on the coin. Historically they were three ships...

I went to the LCS today and forgot to look. Yes, I think it is PCGS MS69. Isn't that a ship under the In God We Trust.
Yes, there is a ship on the obverse. I was only looking at the reverse...

I don't remember, but I am not a great TV fan.
