I'm on the fence about this one. Close to pulling the trigger (if someone else doesn't come along a sweep it out from under me).
I have to shake my head when I see you guys praising a coin like this. It's ugly as hell. My first thought was that it was improperly rinsed after being dipped and that it later turned in the holder. I'm surprised that CAC blessed it. This is a perfect example of why I don't trust CAC stickered coins.
Im really shocked that got a sticker. Another reason why I cant figure John out ive sent out coins that looked twice as better didn't get a bean. That peace dollar looks like its been in a fire and in a war would never praise a coin like that IDC what holder its in...
Just so you don't think I am totally off my rocker, I am compiling a collection of problem free PCGS/NGC ultra UGLY Peace dollars. I mean, the truly hideous ones. Again, they can't be problem coins in problem holders. Coins that straight grade yet have terrible eye-bleach appeal. I think this one fits that category, or- at least I hope so.
If that Peace dollar were brought to NGC's attention, I am certain they would remove it from the numismatic marketplace by buying it back and taking it out of its coffin.

Guys relax, you know this likely never looked as it does NOW, when it got beaned right?
oh, and Braddick get off the fence, it's a dog.
Ok. Here was my thoughts We all know grading from photos is a tricky thing. I looked at the gold NGC logo/hologram and saw the GOLD color was off which means the rest of the photo was not accurate. I'm sure the Green Bean was due to the coin being original and not messed with. JMHO Happy Labor Day to ALL!!!
Old story - friend calls, has some stuff he wants to unload. Wonders if I'll take it. Most of it was modern mint/proof sets and hundreds of common foreign coins that he's accumulated over dozens of business trips. But under the rubble were these...
@SullyFan2 - Encourage him to make little bags of the common foreign coins for Halloween treats. Along with some candy of course. Could inspire a young Numismatist to imagine the tales those coins could tell.

Oh phew, got it, thanks for clarifying.
Then this might be a candidate for centerpiece in your fugly collection.

Perry thanks for saying this. Coming from a forum elder (38k+ posts) like yourself I don’t feel so bad about how my own views align with yours on that coin. I honestly couldn’t be paid to have it in my collection.
I have in my collection a couple SAE’s from the WTC recovery. This was the first time I had seen on ebay a coin from Jamaica also from the WTC. And for my strictly rattler type set, a $5 Indian in atleast ms63 was the goal. In au55-ms62 $5 Indians make appearances. Once they hit ms63 tho, they become harder to find in rattlers. Now let’s see if I can ever find a $2.5 or $10 early golds in rattlers! Haha! Dream big or go home. I am sure they are out and about. Just haven’t seen one yet. And had $ to buy it, or arrange a layaway if possible. Funds are always a large factor to consider.
Never one to look a gifthorse in the mouth, my complimentary hand-signed former ANA President 2020 ASE just arrived, milk spots and all. These ASE's were part of a promotion which came with a three year membership:

A big thank you to Michael @ Art In Coins for his superior communications which kept any anxiety at a minimum.
My Dad purchased this coin in the 1970's, so it isn't a new one for me, but this is the first time I've photographed it. When I got it under the lens a luster bomb exploded!!
I sent a few coins in a couple batches to PCGS. In one regrade group, I requested / payed for a new TV. It has been a while since the original was shot - WOW Now just awaiting the grades, possibly sometime this next week. Be still my heart

@bearcave That's the prettiest AU58 Morgan I've ever seen. I've got much worse looking MS ones.
@ShaunBC5 I thought the same thing! It looks as good in hand too.

I love the no stars dimes and half dimes. One of my favorite designs. I love the lack of clutter!
Some thing that just looks a bit different however, I do like the no stars obverse more than with stars just a cleaner looking design.
