I recently posted pictures of what I consider to be a really wonderfully toned Peace dollar. I'd love to see images of other super looking Peace dollars, so let's start a thread to show off the great colors that can be hard to find in this series.

    This Peace is far from being "amazing toned" but I still like it.

    As much as I prefer bright, as minted coins, I must admit there is money to be made in tarnish. That being said, I don't sell coins so the point is moot for me. Cheers, RickO

    If I had a nickel for every time you have stated this in a toning thread I'd be at least .55c richer.

    I used to own that coin, and actually put it in the NGC holder.

    Originally bought it for $400 on ebay in a Redfield holder.

    Sent it to NGC for grading, they remove from Redfield holder and determine their is PVC damage, and return to me unencapsulated.

    I return to NCS for conservation, it gets conserved, successfully, and then goes to NGC for grading, gets into a 62 holder, but loses the pedigree.

    It gets returned, I lose all interest in the coin, and sell it on ebay for a hefty loss.

    I have pics of the coin in the Redfield holder in you are interested.

    What ever happened to the toned Peace that went missing? If I remember the story correctly, it was sent to a member for sale and he declined and sent the coin back under or uninsured and it disappeared. Did it ever turn back up and whas the seller made whole?

    Here are two shots from Mark Goodman:

    Its hard to see from that angle, but that is PVC covering her face. The green color was much more pronounced when viewed at an angle.

    I am looking for some other shots, full slab shots from the seller i originally bought it from.

    If you ever decide to sell, let me know, I always like to be reunited with coins i mistakenly sold.

    Thanks for the pics. That is definitely the same coin. Interesting. I have never seen much mention of pvc on coins in Redfield holders.
    Maybe someone with more experience with those holders will chime in.

    Funny thing. Peace Dollars are by far my favorite series. I love toned coins in my type collection. I don't like most toned Peace Dollars, but a few of these here are really impressive.

    So far I think Flatwood's 1923 in MS63 is the best.

    I own a lot of toned dollars but seldom see Peace Dollars that I care for as much as the Morgans.

    too bad peace dollars don't have the same toning as morgans! Most peace that I've seen you have to turn it a special way to see the nice toning. A dead straight camera shot, they look terrible!

    There is very unusual, two-sided pastel toning on this PCGS MS65 1922 Peace Dollar.

    While I like the Peace dollar design, and I like certain toning on coins in general, I have not found that one example that excites me enough for a purchase. image
  • WeissWeiss Posts: 9,942 ✭✭✭✭✭
    I'm a huge fan of peace dollars. I think it's one of the best US coin designs of all time.

    And I know that toned peace dollars are as rare as hen's teeth.

    But...some of these pieces look like environmental disasters.

    Who cares if they're rare and toned if they are just plain ugly? Is having sludge colored "tone" better than not having any tone? I don't think so.

    I concur with your view.

    Mine single example is monochromatic!

    I agree with you 100%.

    This "beauty" sold in the Legend-Morphy auction last week for more than $3,000! To each his/her own.
