I just recently discovered that Peace Dollars are out there in GSA Packaging...albeit different than the nice CC hard cases the morgans are in. I've seen Peace's in Mint set like plastic pouches with GSA tokens. Does anyone have any pics of these or any info. on these?

I'm sure Gsaguy has more information on this.
Also notice the Blue envelope. It looks almost the same as the "Ike" envelopes.
These softpacks were offered at $3 a peice when the came out. The 78cc was a much better deal!!!!

But, for those of you interested, I can send you a date list of known softpack dollars, including Peace dollars.
Van Allen & Mallis reported that 97,591 coins were sold in this category (Mixed Circulated) at a price of $3.00 each. Virtually 100% of the coins were sold with the first offering in June of 1973. A handful were retained in case of errors or warranted returns.
And then there was that single circulated Seated Liberty Dollar that also sold.
Hope this helps.

I'd really appreciate any of the extra info/date lists you have on these. If it's cool PM me and I'll send you my email addy. Thanks man.
