I think this is the first Denver Mint coin that we're looking at.

A former bootlegger, Bailey had only been arrested once and had never served any prison time.

Law enforcement agencies considered him one of the country's top bank robbers, however, after his suspected involvement in the Denver Mint robbery of 1922.

Bailey's regular associates included Big Homer Wilson, another longtime bank robber, Charles Fitzgerald, a criminal in his 60s with ties to the Chicago mob, Vern Miller, a decorated World War I veteran and former South Dakota sheriff turned bootlegger, bank robber and killer whose increasingly mental instability may have eventually led to his murder by other gangsters who were endangered by his erratic behavior, and Bernard Phillips, alias Big Bill Courtney, a former Chicago policeman who saw more money in being a bandit.

The group formed a gang with a sometimes floating membership and went on to commit a number of spectacular robberies, cleaning out banks all over Iowa, Nebraska, Texas, Minnesota, and Wisconsin.
