Sounds like some folks are unhappy with the quality coming from the mint these days.

Should I break up the set and send the half dollar in for grading,?
Thanks in advance.

    I wonder if that would dip out.... probably not.

    A small hole in the plastic will cause localized toning on even cuni clad coins

    Is 'cuni' often used as abbrev for copper nickel? Nice! If the toning is even rather than localized, it would be cuniform.

    A wise old dealer once told me: " if you buy crap , they will sell you crap". I think he was referring to the mint.

  • rickoricko Posts: 98,724 ✭✭✭✭✭

    If that is on the coin, and not the plastic, that is terrible quality control from the mint. Of course, it was 56 years ago. Cheers, RickO

    Just realized the 2021 morgan/peace "dollars" are not 1 oz rounds..
    Being .858oz means my buy price is actually $20.74 each
    I am so glad I caught my mistake in time!
    🤯

    *processing fee of $3.99 per coin waived on orders of 9 or 13.

    This seems to contradict you there’s an oz.🙃. Better raise that offer 😉

    @Jzyskowski1 You appear to be confusing the ASE silver dollar specs with the 2021 Morgan and Peace dollars specs.

    Prints are on the half dollar, not the plastic.
    Sorry folks, not for sale. ;)

    This is a gift that a lot of board members will soon realize. All I have to say is some are getting stuck on all the bad and not what it is going to be. But that is just me dumb Type2 thinking.



    Hoard the keys.

    Thanks. I stand corrected. Old age confuses me because I don’t feel old 😉
