I finally got my first Edith Kanakaʻole Quarters yesterday. Almost had to bribe the teller for them, but I got eight. My Morgan proof order was filled and sent on day of issue but my Peace dollars were finally sent today. Wonder why the delay. Guess I won’t hold my breath for any PR70 coins. Now for the Eleanor Roosevelt AWQs. I suppose I won’t get one until the end of the year, the way things are going. And there are two more issues to go. How do you figure out the value of the next one? It’s in her… Read more »
The Jovita Idar one is indeed unique and my favorite design of all of the AWQ so far.
Major D,
The Jovita Idar AWQ is a truly world class design, the design brilliance of which the Mint doesn’t all that often seem to strive for and more importantly, achieve.
Antonio-
Here in NC, I’ve found over a dozen Edith quarters from the bill changer at the local laundromat. All have been from Denver Mint; all have had an unusually bright finish for a circulating grade coin. I’ve been setting those aside. Haven’t seen any but the 2023-D. Normally, we get most of our circulating coins from Philly, but not this time.
Glad you got the proof dollars; I’m sure they are beautiful coins.
Sam-I-Am,
Thanks for a whole new source for our collectable circulating coin needs. First there’s the Mint, next the local bank and now the local laundromat’s bill changer.
Plus you can make change in church collecting plate and those kettles for salvation army. In rare cases you can find them in mall fountains
That would all depend, I imagine, on one’s ethical makeup. Those with a slightly darker bent would likely be inclined to simply scoop a hefty handful of coins out of the collection plate, make off with the entire Salvation Army bucket, and boldly wade through the Trevi and other fountains in a likely fruitful quest for coinage, except in the case of the aforementioned pool it might be prudent to keep both an eye and an ear out for the almost inevitable arrival of the Carabinieri.
A fellow collector and I noticed a wearing die defect on many of the brand new P mint Kanaka’ole Quarters about a month ago. Beautiful in every other way but check all the P’s reverse specifically for wearing die defects at KA in her name. We found so many that we decided they would not be collectable. We just wondered how long it would take for mint workers to realize that the die needed replacement.
harryg,
It’s ironic that while production, ordering and shipping efficiency have all noticeably improved at the Mint, quality control appears to have taken a nosedive.
I thought of requesting that a quality control inspector sign-off on each one, but that likely would mean a well-placed thumbprint on the coin.
Or, Major D, a big black Sharpie checkmark on both sides of the coin.
Carve initials on it with an awl
Run it through another multi-ton press for a gold star privy mark.
Coins intended for general circulation are clearly not a priority for the mints. I should have provided this example when I first commented. Sorry for the poor photo and resolution, and I did manipulate the lighting for clarity but this is the best I could do with a phone camera. When you have a defective example in hand and using a loupe as I do, it is plain as day. Those with more youthful vision can see it without magnification. The mint chose to incuse strike her name only on this coin and we attributed the rather quick die failure… Read more »
Sorry, trying to attach a photo. Says “input too short”
Ok got it!
That’s what she said
That’s what Xi said.
harryg,
The funny thing is that I was actually referring to the Uncirculated Morgan Dollar that I received with a “visible to the naked eye” type of smudge at the top of the Obverse. Wait a minute, maybe that’s one of those Quality Control fingerprints that Major D predicted would result from any final checks before the coins left the Mint.
Ok, sorry. Don’t mind me. I drift in and out at times.
harryg,
Just so you know, I did not mean in any way to criticize your response i.e. comment. I only wanted to clarify my original intent.
No offense taken my friend.
Thank you; much obliged.
Quality seems to suffer when in competition with the chinese. They can print our money faster and cheaper than we can. And even able to get them slabbed. But we gotta give it the old college try, that’s why quality down
My mind keeps going back to that study from a few years back which explained how quite a few college sophomores, even at the better schools, read at a tenth grade high school level. College try maybe no good.
Can’t count back change, what makes you think they know what the change is supposed to look like
Can’t read, can’t write, can’t count, can’t (or don’t want to) work.
Wonderful!
Kaiser,
As you described that, it’s Generation C (Can’t)… related to Generation W (Won’t)…
NumisdudeTX
They are supposed to be generation use less. But they got so excited they printed their picket signs reading useless. And it just kinda stuck from there. Their. They’re. Thar. They are. Thayer. You know what I’m tried too say
And don’t forget “there”. They’re looking for where their there is.
There is mentioned. Was the first version.
You said it, Seth. No wonder we’re falling behind in the world.
Kaiser,
I’m not at all surprised by that considering most high school kids in our large cities can barely due simple math and are still confused as to which gender they are. Could this be the reason why they are moving so quickly with AI?
Remember the good old days when blondes would dye their hair brown or black and that was what everyone called artificial intelligence
Maybe that’s what’s been the problem holding back quantum computers all along; they haven’t been made the right color yet!
Craig,
Considering that cursive writing is no longer taught in schools and calculators are used as a replacement for brain power, I would say these institutions of lower learning are now eminently capable of turning out droves of drooling layabouts.
Well. A wise man once said, if you’re stupid, at least be good at fighting. John Wayne
John Wayne. Fought more wars on studio sets than Audie Murphy.
But wasn’t awarded as many medals.
If he was alive today, at $82 per medal they couldn’t afford to give him many medals
I still can’t believe that all those fools who went to scam colleges of their own accord because they couldn’t get into a real school are going to have their loans erased and picked up by the taxpayers.
Amazingly, or perhaps not so much so, the Chinese are also extremely adept at constructing entire cities, including a life-size replica of downtown Paris, that no one either wants to or can afford to live in.
To be honest, I can see why people wouldn’t want to see Paris. Too many French there
Antonio,
In this tip-crazy era of ours you don’t bribe the teller, you tip generously instead.
Oh, but when I offer just the tip at work I gotta go through special HR training
Morgan and peace showing 260,000 give or take. Amazingly less than 100 returned. No wonder they can’t stick to budgets and America’s credit rating getting reduced again. Whodathunk the same thinking as VP that tanked it would be the P when it tanked again. More money to Ukraine. Give em all the aircraft carriers. Give em all the f16s. Give them Tom Cruise. Okay keep Tom cruise. At least till part 2 comes out, he still has time to redeem himself. If mission impossible concludes badly, then send him and Masterson and Leah to Ukraine. Although reminy is hot, she’s… Read more »
Dazed and Coinfused,
I wonder how many collectors received a Morgan with some sort of blemish or other “got right by the Quality Assurance Department” type of mark on it like I did but kept it anyway for fear that in the event of its return to the Mint for an exchange the subsequently received replacement coin might have an even more prominent flaw.
Dazed and Coinfused,
It took me a second reading of your comment to come up with the ultimate weapon:
The Tom Cruise Missile
Kaiser,
He’s Tom Cruise, Scientology Missionary, not Tom Cruise Missile.
And he’s banned from working in Germany under their cult religion laws.
NumisdudeTX
Well, if he’s so easily brainwashed perhaps it is a great idea that he stays out of Germany. But lucky for us, I don’t think Tom cruise can grow a mustache. Then again he shocked us in tropic thunder so once again we come full circle
Tom Cruise’s best work has been in smaller roles in movies, and here I’m specifically referring to Magnolia and Tropic Thunder. When he plays the lead he’s a haughty goofball simply portraying himself.
Seth,
Whatever else you can say about the Germans, they do have their limits.
Lost in all of the Morgan and Peace hubbub, the 2023 proof set keeps moving along at a decent pace. Though, even if it sustains an average of 5,000 +/- sales per week it would take another 26 weeks to work through what’s on the shelves (132,355 if the availableCount is accurate). That said, it still appears to be the lowest annual clad proof set mintage (approx 373,000) since 1954, beating 1955’s 378,200 (and that’s for a set that contains the 2nd year of proof AWQ). Could this be the sleeper coin set that is talked about years from now?… Read more »
“could this be the sleeper coin set that is talked about years from now?”…hell yes! I would ‘load the truck up’ with these sets and you will be a happy camper in a few years. Probably be able to purchase a second home in Maui after you sell a few. This is what they call a ‘sure thing’ in the gambling community. I would jump on the mint web page right now and buy, but I just broke the fingernail on my key clicking finger! Damn.
Good one! Sarcasm duly noted. But for comparison the 2022 proof set is selling on ebay for over $50, meanwhile APMEX has it listed for $59.99. Not bad for a set sold by the Mint for $32 just 9 months ago. I’m quite happy to play moneyball with the smaller sets. You don’t need out-of-the-park homeruns– just a lot of singles and base-on-balls that add up to homeruns in the end. BTW, the 2020 clad proof set is now selling for $100 without the W nickel, and that set had the lowest mintage since 1955 until 2022 beat it– and… Read more »
Major D,
But the only problem is who are you going to sell them to?? Dealers won’t offer you much for hardly any modern clad Proof sets (2012 maybe) & eBay & other such websites charge a large fee to sell an item. Also, by now everyone that wanted those sets already have as many as they want/need.
NumisdudeTX
Ah, yes- that’s the rub!
Major D, Seth and Craig,
With the exception of those coins that have been well nigh impossible to get from the Mint and as such have on occasion experienced monumental increases in resale value, the majority of the Mint’s products secondary market prices are either essentially flat or manipulatively inflated. As so many contributors have suggested here before, there are far superior ways to amplify your current, rainy day and/or retirement fund.
Kaiser,
You mean by selling those chocolate bars door to door?? It’s a good side hustle/gig! I sell chocolate & buy coins…
NumisdudeTX
Have you tried selling chocolate coins? Bonus, you can get a whole bag gold chocolate coins for 16 oz for 2.99. Way less of a markup than the mint, and same basic quality
Seth,
I leave that to my granddaughters. I prefer to wander as I wonder.
“Who were those people?”
Personally, it’s just too much work for me to make a few dollars on a transaction. Don’t get me wrong, if you enjoy it than more power to you, it’s not my cup of tea. I would add if you really think those sets will be as collectible as any produced, I wouldn’t broadcast it to the world. I like the Bristlecone Tree design on the Liberty, but I have no intention of starting a new gold coin collection from the mint, what with their ludicrous premiums on Au. I’m happy with my previous year Buffaloes and AGE’s. I am… Read more »
Ditto to the Morgan/Peace arrival. I seriously doubt my opinion is enough to impact the available supply one way or the other- certainly not to the extent that would impact my buying into it, so I’m happy to broadcast my prognostications.
Major D and Craig,
While it’s no doubt understandable that collectors might like to think of their coin acquisitions as a profit source, I believe that on the whole it’s more relaxing and therefore enjoyable to be satisfied with the concept of collecting simply for its own sake.
Kaiser, I’m reminded of The Boss’s song lyric (song by Manfred Mann): “Mama always told me not to look into the eyes of the sun, but mama
That’s where the fun is”.
Major D,
That is how and why we get burned in so many unnecessary ways.
Or condom factory has same quality control as the mint.
Don’t they have couples try each one before it goes out?
No. Due to cutbacks and bidenomics there has been a huge layoff. Now they are just individually tested. Some of the larger ones are being used by Chinese as weather balloons.
And that’s why trump never gave it a second thought when sun mostly eclipsed by the moon
Now I’m not sure if I’m supposed to reply with “I’m not surprised” or “That explains a lot.”
Kaiser,
Have you received your proof Morgan/Peace yet? They are gorgeous coins, but it is a shame they will never be worth more than a hundred bucks or so.Mine came in great condition, as I expected they would, and under a magnifying glass appear to be PR70’s, not that I would bother having them slabbed.
Craig, According to the Mint and the USPS my two are on the way and should be arriving this Monday. After my somewhat disappointing experience with the quality of my Uncirculated Morgan I haven’t got my hopes up too high as to what shape these two Proofs will be in. At this point I would almost have to say that the ASE’s I got last year seem to have been of superior minting quality to what the Uncirculated Morgan and Peace Dollars have delivered this year, although I will admit the Peace Uncirculated was far closer to the better grade… Read more »
Yes, only it’s a shame there wasn’t a $950 premium to get one.
Keep your receipts Kaiser. When you are on your death bed, give me a call and I’d happily buy most, if not all your collection for what you paid.
Dazed and Coinfused,
When you are in full humorous mode your wit is simply unmatchable here. I’m going to be chortling about this one for a while!
Why. Whatever do you mean?
D & C,
Kaiser is right on that humor issue…I liked it when you said about a person’s grandpa, “If he lives long enough to complete the current quarter coin series from the Mint”…too funny!
NumisdudeTX
Don’t let your, you’re, yore, yall, you all yalls people hear you say that. If they find out you were nice to a straight, or non affiliated republican leaning (very slightly, and almost immeasurably distinct) older guy. They’ll cancel you.
Dazed and Coinfused and Seth,
Having been effectively disintegrated so often and so completely for over half of my 76 years by those who should have known better, the idea of “cancelling” today means less than nothing to me.
D & C,
When is the George Santos coin & medal set coming out from the Mint??!!
Wasn’t he President in a former life? – I think he said that…Lol.
NumisdudeTX
It was minted shortly after his 5th term as president.
$27 profit minus shipping cost. Plus pay tax on profit. Don’t forget to factor lost shipping due to customer changing mind. Or lost in delivery. Plus there is always that scruplesless person that’ll claim wrong item or item not received, or item not as described. Or may swap your great set for one of his crappy worthless ones he claims you sent him instead of what he ordered.
Sold 1 2019 palladium. Impressive. How that work exactly
Question …..Does anyone know when the mint releases the Official mintage number of a coin…..ie a coin with say a 275,000 limit….. but, taking into account return defects etc….. or does the mintage figure stay at its maximum instead of actual?
Domenic,
In recent years, it takes about 2 years till the Mint officially states the final audited total sales numbers of a coin, due to an antiquated inventory & accounting computer system and the Mint’s standard operating procedures.
Original Mintage numbers & sales figures are not necessarily the same thing of course.
NumisdudeTX
still around 40,000 Morgan Proofs left
Back at the start of the year the coins were not selling great with the small household limit, then they upped it to 25, which helped as some big wigs grabbed a bunch, and now no limit and the proofs aren’t close anywhere to a sellout.
my guess next year the Mint will drop the amount available by at least 50,000
was supposed to get a coin today, but now expected delivery for both proofs is tomorrow.
Tom, these numbers haven’t moved one iota since I looked at 8 am this morning. The Mint is not adjusting the counts in real time with sales. Also, as of right now, there’s also no way of knowing the true starting numbers to gage sales relative to mintage limit.
Major D, Tom, Seth and Dominic,
It helps to think of the Mint’s coin production and sales tallies to be akin to the sleight of hand of a magician: now you see it, now you don’t.
another point. I have had a lot of quarters found behind my ear. Not allowed to keep any of them, but if I had that guy’s demon blessed ability, I’d be pulling quarter after quarter all day every day. I’d be rich
I have just started collecting can you please tell me where I should start?
If I was just starting and doing things solely for the fun and ‘completing the challenge’ I would buy an album for state quarters and an album for the state parks and go to the bank and get a roll of quarters and see how many slots I could fill. except for the cost of the albums, you are not paying anything extra for the quarters. there are also the women’s quarters, but there is no album out yet. along with those quarters there is a Washington crossing the Delaware, and if lucky you might find a bicentennial quarter. good… Read more »
With whatever makes you happy. If for investment, bullion. As a collectible. You can try to pick up the modern American silver eagle, peace or morgan. Silver will probably get you farther depending on gold to silver ratio. You can collect medals if that is your thing. But with gold and silver and other coins, not medals, they’ll always be worth at least the face value. So oz gold coin would be worth $100 at the least even if gold by weight is $1. That is my understanding. Or you can collect older. They’ll get rarer, but rare doesn’t more… Read more »
Hi Donna, If you want new coins open an account with the Mint and pick a coin series to subscribe to. I am guessing if your budget can handle up to $500 a year, the Peace and/or Morgan dollars in proof and/or uncirculated would be a nice choice since they just started minting them annually this year. I just received my Morgan proof, and it really looks great. You would need to add the 2021s to your collection eventually to make the modern collection complete (unless you want to only collect proofs) but that is way better than if you… Read more »
Well, she can start collecting the type 2 ase. No rule saying she has to go back to 1986. Magic mike said on one of his shows that when he gets those huge hoards it is inevitable to find counterfeits and more often than you would think. Yeah silver tarnished, but some people like the rainbow effects. I wonder if there is a special sealer you can dip in to keep air from oxidizing it. Maybe vacuum sealed slabs from ngc. Gold sure is shinier and only takes 1 to get the amount of 100 silver coins, but sometimes you… Read more »
“2017 blackface statue of liberty”? Blackface? Oh Jesus!
If you truly want to collect start with coins incirculation…..go to the bank…get some rolls of quarters, dimes, nickels and pennies. Get the coin albums with the sliding windows, not the folders. Once you have gone tbru those rolls…turnem in……get more rolls. Ask the bank if they have any half dollars or half dollar rolls..YOU MIGHT get lucky on those. At some point pick up the current RED BOOK on coin collecting at a bookstore or online. That will give you mintages and basic pricing and alot of info. If you find the hobby fun… continue to expand to mint… Read more »
D & C,
I go door to door in my neighborhood & ask people if I can look under their couch cushions for coins! And I sometimes ask for some milk & cookies since it’s hard work… Lol.
I don’t bend over to pick up a cent coin on the ground, since my close friend Ben Dover does that for me… he’s shy & submissive, but good at what he does!
NumisdudeTX
Water is for winners and milk and cookies are for Santa. Ain’t much else left. Fruit juice?
Antifreeze?
Colt 45. The official beer & caliber of blm
The tall boys of that were my choice when I first started college. Likely explains a lot about why I never graduated.
Seth,
You never see Ben Dover without his best buddy Dick Hertz.
I heard he hangs out with Buster V. Jayjay.
Aha, Buster Highman’s long lost cousin.
Wow, big drop in the Navy 1oz Silver Medal of -1,718. Why? Wonder with so many folks writing about mishandled proof products recently that the Navy Medal is the lead with damaged Mint products from improper handling of coins (and medals) by Mint staff and contractors putting scuffs on and damaging Mint products? The two Navy Medals I purchased were blemish free. I did lower my proof Morgan & Peace Dollar subscriptions as I got worried with all the comments I have read from folks here over the past few months as to the quality of some of the Mint’s… Read more »
Chris Terp,
It’s gotten to the point where I’m more surprised to receive a blemish free coin from the Mint than the contrary; to my way of thinking that’s a rather sorry state of affairs.
received both Dollars today. Dazzling.
though I would add the following comment.
The S mintmark on the Peace Dollar is ‘symmetrical’ – if that is a good term while the S mintmark on the Morgan Dollar appears to be slightly fatter on the lower part of the S than the top part. Guess we shall see if the experts say there are a few different S mintmarks
It is an error. Supposed to be a 5 not an S
😉
Good going Tom 🙂
My Morgan comes in Monday and no word yet on the Peace Dollars on shipping.
My Morgan came in today (14AUG), not pleased scuff marks on both sides. Disappointing:-(
🙁
I don’t know if I got both coins. I got 2 boxes today. Both said Memphis fulfillment center. The tape was different. One clear, other said stop and had a warning not to sign if looked tampered. Never had to sign for anything. But shipping shows one from Texas and other Tennessee. Maybe I got that 2019 reverse proof palladium coin they sold this week.
Also. One originally showed a Friday delivery and other Saturday. Both came today. I’m sure it looks pretty. Magic mike should be on tomorrow hocking ms70 adv release. Prior to mint pressing them. It’s really just the original blank but looks awesome. Such detail
Both Peace and Morgan arrived today. I didn’t use a magnifier to inspect them closely, but I will today. I did check some of the pre-sale prices on Ebay from coin dealers, not much money there. Got lucky getting some of the smaller mintage Eagles earlier this year so I can’t complain too much. I’m still undecided about getting them graded, it looks like $80 a coin at NGC. Ouch!
DAVID C MILLER,
You mean to tell me that it costs as much to have a coin graded by a third party as it did to buy it from the Mint? Excuse me for saying so, but that sounds patently insane!
Depends. I think some of the graders you have to become a member. Some you must go through a dealer who charge whatever for the service. A minimum of 100 coins. I wonder do they have like 1 to 10 coins they can make a mint on, but wait for 90 more people to bring in coins to submit, or if they get 1 guy that comes in and they decide to be nice and submit another 99 coins to meet the requirement. And each descriptive line adds to cost. So do certain labels. I think with a mike purchase… Read more »
Kaiser & D &C,
You have to pay an annual membership fee to join PCGS & NGC collector’s clubs to be able to submit your coins to them directly. Then pay an authentication & grading fee, a processing fee, return postage fee & any special fees for error coins, varieties, special labels etc. It costs more than most modern U.S. Mint coins are worth to have a coin or medal graded!
NumisdudeTX
this was from an internet posting in 2020
https://boards.ngccoin.com/topic/422347-how-much-does-it-cost-to-have-a-coin-graded-please-post-your-experiences/
One example for NGC:
Submitted 5 coins, no special labels, did not request scratch resistant slabs.
Modern Tier
Shipping and Insurnace to NGC: $20
Grading was $16 per ($80 total)
Return Mint Packaging: $5
Handling Fee: $8
Return Shipping: $23
Total for 5 coins: $136 or $27.20 per coin
Tom,
The “Modern Tier” is cheaper for sure. ANACS runs a special once in awhile for Modern Coins tier at $10 per coin if you send 10 coins in. I only buy PCGS coins as a personal preference when I want a graded coin.
NumisdudeTX
Sounds about right. 🙁
Thanks for info. I think grading fee is based on coin value, but I don’t know if it is based on metal weight or what coin may be worth. Like 2019 RP Ase. Is it based on $23 melt value, the estimated resell value of most other ase $45. Or original mint asking price of $60. Or $2,000 + due to rarity
So that’s for economy grading. First class must be highway robbery.
Technically they are robbing you before the coin is even on the highway.
Makes sense to me. Cutting them off at the pass, so to speak.
Cutting em off at the press
Even better.
Pure bliss. Or as China would say pure bris. Or maybe I’m thinking something else.
Malice aforethought…or something close.
I sure wouldn’t leave a tip with the menu prices this high.
Just park a couple stores down and dine and dash. Stick it to the man. Get whitey
It doth occur. Watched a video about that yesterday, but the victim was a street vendor.
Thanks for verifying.
Seth,
You’ve just made me feel so good about never having had a coin graded!
Yes it does depend on a number of things. At least initially and partially, the reasoning behind going through dealers in theory was to pre screen some of the folks with volumes of pure junk some proposed to send in for grading. You can imagine the sheer numbers of unworthy coins submitted to the grading companies. This too drives up the price. You had better be sure your little treasure is worthy of submission because now it will cost you dearly either way. Coins directly from the mint and dealers are simply easier to go through than millions of coins… Read more »
I would like to add that you can also imagine the sheer number of people who insist they have found a “new variety” or something special in circulation that everybody else missed through 75 years of circulation and needs authentication. No sorry, your 1955 double die Lincoln cent is not an actual double die, that is post mint damage.
I found the Frankenstein monster error on Lincoln cent. See, right on his neck are the bolts they inserted to keep Lincoln alive for as long as possible. And that’s with my naked eye. I thought was rare but I discovered 5 banks bags full of em. Trust me, I’m a professional.
I do believe you’re conflating Frankenstein with Francisco Franco. Remember how they tormented his dying body by laboriously keeping him what could barely pass for being alive just to very temporarily forestall the inevitable end to his decades-old dictatorship for as long as inhumanly possible?
Well I get that, but by now it should have all the wrinkles ironed out. And anyone submitting 100 junk silver coins badly worn for grading has to pay. Graders are meant to make money and it isn’t up to them to decide if you are wasting money on junk coin or if you are grading a rare double eagle advance release error
Why on earth would anyone want to have scuffed junk silver graded?
Dazed and Coinfused,
Many thanks for your exceedingly thorough explanation, especially since I knew next to nothing about any of this as I have never in my entire collecting “career” submitted a single coin for grading. Quite frankly, now that I’ve been made aware of all the multilayered handling technicalities and possible difficulties and/or errors involved in this process I think I’ll stick to both my OGP philosophy and practice going forward.
You down with OGP, yeah you know me.
Great song, that.
Hows the song go….. A N T I C I P A T I O N…morgan and peace out for delivery today!
My Morgan and Peace showed up today and don’t see any flaws . Look beautiful, very nice cameo effect.
Happy to hear that
Ditto, Domenic. Fortune has indeed smiled upon you.
My Morgan proof dollar arrived today. Not pleased with it as scuffs on both sides 🙁
I hope when my Peace proof dollars show up that they are blemish-free – fingers crossed
Sorry to hear that. This is why I am waiting for mine and suffering some anxiety right now.
Fingers crossed harryg for the Mint & delivery gods providing you with good coins.
All my previous Morgan & Peace dollars were outstanding. I’m hoping the proof Peace coins arrive blemish-free.
The proof Peace dollars are really nice looking. Shows they should have been issued with the original issue. I received both my Morgan and Peace proof dollars and am very pleased with them. No issues for me.
Can yall post pics? Seems like the morgan and peace are riddled with issues. Wonder if intentional or just a civil service worker making $35 an hour to pretend to look at a coin finish
The latter.
Dazed and Coinfused, Antonio, Chris Terp, and harryg,
To share my own experience, in the case of both the Uncirculated and the Proof it was the Peace Dollar that was the superior coin. Neither Peace Dollar had a mark on it while both Morgan Dollars exhibited slight blemishes, the Uncirculated Morgan Dollar quite a bit more so than the Proof Morgan Dollar. Overall from most pristine to a more than a tad disappointing I would have to rank them in the following order:
1) Proof Peace Dollar
2) Uncirculated Peace Dollar
3) Proof Morgan Dollar
4) Uncirculated Morgan Dollar
