1927-S Peace GTG (REVEALED)

Weiss

Chose this from a matching pair based on its frosty surfaces and the strike. Most of the breaks you see are just within the skin, but grade her as you please:

Grading peace $ to me is like blindfolding me spinning me around and asking me to
throw a dart at the dartboard, but I'll say MS60

I'm in the MS62 but does have nice skin.

ModCrewman

I'd give it a 63/64...probably falling on the side of a 63.

Sorry Sam have to disagree not generic at all!

Tough date and I am in the 62 camp.

I would venture MS 62. The reverse mark seems rather severe otherwise 63.

I do believe its a nice, attractive coin and would welcome one of that quality to fill the hole in my PD set I am working on.

Tough crowd, though as always my photo skills suck

Lots of luster under that skin, really nice cartwheel, super strike, and only one or two real contact marks on either side. I'm solid 63 with her and I think I'm pretty conservative with peace dollars.

I believe she's a VAM 1-D, too:




But she's had an interesting history

Nice and I like the tire tread in the slab design

Weiss

Thanks, guys. This is only the second Blanchard slab I've handled. Dates to the late 1980s and this one and its mate came out of a very old collection sold to my dealer yesterday.

A better date (3rd lowest mintage, way smaller than the '21) with the Redfield history in a golden age slab from one of the earliest TPGs. It's kinda cool

Now I need to decide if it's permanent collection or catch and release...
