1922 Peace Dollar on E-Bay - American Savings & Loan Assoc. as a Complimentary Gift

I thought this may be an interesting bit of packaging to pass on. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3306170672&category=11980

  • This coin has been on my watch list for about 5 days. I think I'm going to snipe it. I love the toning.

    No wonder these savings and loans went out of business.

    Had they invested in coins instead of giving them away and investing in crummy mortagages they would still be around!

    Greg Bingham is from Houston TX where this S&L is from and he told me a while back that these things were issued in the 1960s so they are really old. That's 30+ years of tone on those coins.

  • I love the tone on the Peace Dollar. Cool!!!

    Deb and Harold have some similar coins on ebay right now that I saw the other day. I would post a link, but I might get in trouble image

    Through the years I've bought a number of these. They're usually target toned with deep blues and red-browns. Neat piece.

    P.S. Do you guys ever see any Tidy House Dollars?

    Not as often as I see Tidy House Halves which is not very often either.
