Liberty Dollar Encyclopedia

The Liberty Dollar Encyclopedia is an amazing resource of Liberty Dollar information created and maintained by former RCO Ron Goodger. His work has kept information about Liberty Dollar centralized. If able, I encourage all who see this to Visit and Donate to help keep his site up and running.

This page is solely for educational purposes and I will try to use my own images wherever possible to document the different types of Liberty Dollars contained in the Liberty Dollar Encyclopedia. Due to the scarcity of some of the pieces, I will use other images under the fair use doctrine and cite the original sources that own the copyrights.
