Outside of his professional responsibilities, Saint Jovite Youngblood is working toward a black belt in kendo . Most historians connect kendo to kenjutsu, a sword-wielding method used by samurai warriors in Japan’s feudal times. Records of the sword-wielding art go back to the 8th century, but it was not until around the 14th century that kenjutsu schools began appearing in Japan. These schools emphasized the spiritual aspects of sword wielding. Students were taught social and moral aspects related to Zen Buddhism and Bushido, the Japanese way of the warrior. Kenjutsu was considered an indispensable part of samurai training, but its popularity declined after 1867 when sword wielding was banned in Japan. Kenjutsu came back into common use among the country’s police officers in 1877. Shortly after Ja...

Based in Monrovia, California, Kota Saint Jovite Youngblood leads Youngblood Metals Mining and provides dealers of collectibles and antiques with wholesale inventory acquisition services. Kota Saint Jovite Youngblood has a longstanding interest in American coins, and in particular early silver dollars. Produced from 1840 to 1873, the Liberty Seated Silver Dollar had its basis in the design of Christian Gobrecht. The experimental pressing of Gobrecht dollars lasted from 1836 to 1839, and was limited in quantity, though the coins did enter circulation. The Liberty Silver Dollar subsequently went into wide circulation. The iconic coin features an idealized Lady Liberty, surrounded by 13 stars representing the original US states. The reverse side has an eagle with wings spread, holding arrows in one talon and an olive branch in the other. Minted primarily in Philadelphia, Liberty Silver Dollars were hoarded throughout the Gold Rush years, as silver’s price relative to gold increased. As...

As the president of Youngblood Metals Mining, Saint Jovite Youngblood sources unique collectibles, from stamps to rare metals and jewelry. Saint Jovite Youngblood’s areas of in-depth knowledge include early silver-dollar coins, which were first pressed in the 1790s. Presaging the Peace and Morgan silver dollars, with which most Americans are familiar today, the Flowing Hair silver dollar was produced only in 1794 and 1795. Coins from the first year of production now go for at least $50,000 in decent condition, while coins from 1795 start at $2,000. Minted from 1795 to 1803, the Draped Bust silver dollar is significantly more common, but still scarce; it brings in as much as $1,500 in good condition. An 1804 example of the coin exists, but this was struck several decades later as an issue designed for collectors and inclusion in special proof sets. No silver dollars were struck for more than three decades, until production of the Gobrecht dollars, named for the coin designer, in 183...
