    I just noticed that @1940coupe has a new icon, a double struck 1965-D Peace Dollar!

    I am interested to know how people get these and would love to get some :)

    You have to either "send" the draft or "delete" (cut) it to remove a draft.

    bought 1965 double struck on Ebay from Bigpoppas and it wasn't cheap

    Good to know. I missed that one! @Bigpoppas had a lot of great stuff and I wish he was still collecting.

    Here's a quintuple struck 1975 bicentennial quarter I picked up from him. I don't have any dollars or older coins like the Capped Bust Half Dollars but I'll keep a look out for them.

    Yes to 64 High relief but definitely go with S mint mark to go with the 31S, second choice would be a 64P

  • Options
    AkbeezAkbeez Posts: 2,689 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I'm on the fence on the Peace issues. See both sides, but as I've said before, just make it VERY clear the difference if 64 is the chosen date. A DUAL satin/proof finish will make this an obvious difference :) or an S or P mintmark?
    Happy CHEERS to all for the NEW YEAR!

    Would the color come off?

    No, the color would not come off. If left in the dip solution for a long time, it might fade a little due to the general etching of the silver by the dip.

    The reasons why I am contemplating another "1964" Peace are outlined in a previous post. Mainly, it is due to new information coming to light (a photo of an obverse die) which shows exactly what they would have looked like. So this is a special case, not likely to be repeated. If I do any more "1964" Peace over-strikes I am leaning towards doing them in high relief without any "D" mint mark. The obverse would match the photo, except for the higher relief.

    Issuing fantasy-date over-strikes with mint mark variations is not unprecedented in my catalog. For example, I produced and sold "1963" over-strike Kennedys in January 2013 and for a few months following that. Later in the year, after the "1963" versions were sold out, I produced and sold "1963-D" over-strikes starting in October 2013.

    Other fantasy-date over-strikes with mint mark variations include:
    Washingtons: "1975", "1975-D", "1975-S"
    Kennedys: "1963", "1963-D", "1975", "1975-D", "1975-S"
    Eisenhowers: "1975", "1975-D", "1975-S"

    Daniel,

    If I didn't own any of these 9+ years old 1964D Peace I would be all for NEW & IMPROVED 1964D High Relief die struck Dollars !

    After some additional time, Dan I have warmed up to needing to add your 2020 improved upon issue to what already I have. I just looked at my made in 2010 vintage 1964D Peace Dollars and it makes me quite sad to consider cashing out of them. I have enjoyed them over the years & I am certain they will ALL play well together !

    ;^)

    NOW I think It would be AWESOME to acquire accurate details High Relief 1964D PEACE !!!

    DO it !!! Please ???

    I vote ((((((YES)))))))

    Happy 2020 !!!

    Lindy

    I vote for a re-issue of the 1920 Pilgrim Half Dollar, dated 2020, of course.

    It is a nice design and the Mint did not get any Congressional authorization to issue any commems this year for the 400th anniversary of the landing of the Mayflower at Plymouth.

    In case you haven't visited Dan's main page lately - there are only 2 items shown. The lowest in stock I've ever seen.

    I've been working on dies for new products, as well as upgrading the bead-blast cabinet and other equipment at my workshop. I'll have several new products listed some time in the near future, although I don't yet know exactly when- I just have to keep working until I am satisfied with the dies (however long that takes).

    It has been demonstrated that many of us like mint errors. At one Summer Seminar I that the folks striking the souvenir token make a batch of different minting errors for my teaching set - much cheaper than buying US Mint errors that show the same thing. So I have a suggestion that Mr. Carr also consider making such interesting pieces.

    The only way I can see it being fair - yet making him a ton of money w/o killing the market or the desire to own these pieces is to have them available FOREVER (until the dies break) a few times a year (like now with your inventory low) at a fixed issue price. So a double-struck 2020 Peace dollar will cost $$$ today and $$$ in the future when purchased from a batch several years later. Folks could request an error piece that matches a sold-out regular issue already in their collection. These issues would only be issued during a "window" of time once or more each year. Think of it folks and lobby Dan for off-centers, clips, mules, struck thru's, etc.

    PS Dan, you could do this with no need for new dies before the Chinese fill the demand.

  • Options
    JBKJBK Posts: 14,793 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I like the idea of sample errors, but I'd go a step further. I'd suggest a newly designed token available in a set showing a properly struck one along with various errors. It would be great for those learning about various error types.
