Description:

This set of five collectible NYNEX phone cards from the Brasher Doubloon Rare Coin Series features historical themes related to American history and Revolutionary War events. Each card prominently displays one or two detailed gold coin images representing the Brasher Doubloon, recognized as the first American gold coin, minted in 1787 for the Bank of New York. The cards showcase scenes and maps tied to New York and New England during the colonial and Revolutionary eras.

The $5 card depicts British soldiers marching in Chatham Square, New York, during the Revolutionary War. The $10 card shows General Washington’s triumphant entry into New York following the British evacuation. The $20 card features a colonial map of New England created by M. Sutter in 1728, while the $50 card contains a pre-revolutionary map of Manhattan by J. Montresor dating back to 1765. The $16 card combines two images of the Brasher Doubloon gold coin over an illustration of a historical building, emphasizing the coin’s significance.

Each card includes the NYNEX logo and the denomination value in the upper corners with clear, thematic captions placed along the bottom or center, describing the illustrated content related to American Revolutionary Wars and numismatic history. The design and imagery reflect a strong connection to military, historical, and rare coin collecting interests, highlighting moments and artifacts central to New York’s colonial past and early United States history.
