Given that Dan has the designs for the 1805 Draped Bust Dollar, what do people think of a 1834 or 1835 Draped Bust Dollar given that the order to the Mint was made in 1834 and the coins delivered to Edmund Roberts in 1835?
I say go for it! The Draped Bust is a BEAUTIFUL Coin!!!!!
This is what I use to display the bigger tokens.
It's a coin tray from Wizard and a easel from hobby lobby, not a great photo but you should be able to get the idea.

One more question. How do you all store your medals? Larger then 41 mm?
Thanks in advance

I use 2 1/2" X 2 1/2" Mylar Saflips and a PCGS Blue Box. They fit perfect.
Thank you!
Walker Proof Digital Album Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

I do this too. It works with other boxes like ATS boxes as well. The nice thing about moving to the larger flips is I can move the inserts out farther away from the medal to the larger flip. I've noticed the inserts tend to cause some unattractive toning for my pieces, especially the silver ones.
Looks like you have too many Peace's -- need to sell some, there friend

I'm not the only forumoid here who's dealt with him. Contact me with any questions.
BLOCKED HIM today after cancelling his two purchases. Now he will be looking for more victims...

OH, man. I didn't realize that these owls were produced with an antique finish. I have NEVER seen one for sale. @dcarr - have you ever considered producing these octagonal owls in copper, both regular and antiqued? I would LOVE to see these in copper as well.

Anybody got a picture of these I might want to get more?
Well I went ahead and ordered a few more just because I did not want to wait. Nothing worse that waiting and the sold out sign comes on! I did not want to take the chance!
Whatcha smokin there @gluggo? The 2020 Octagons have been sold out for a while. Did you find some on the secondary market? Or are you referring to the SS Republics?

Sorry it took so long to get the photos but my Man Servant Julio was caught hanging out down by the school yard when Rosie The Queen of Corona came by and Julio has been put in a two week quarantine so I had to take my own crummy photos.
Didn't the radical priest come to get him released? I thought I saw it on the cover of Newsweek.
Does Dan do any special treatment of the Silver Eagles before striking like acetone or dip?
I have an ovrrstruck Ike from several years ago that developed a nasty spot of something worse than a milk spot, so I am guessing they are/were not treated. That was 40% silver, though.

You are correct,,,,, that is the way it went down,,,,,,, Julio had to say goodbye to Rosie, The Queen of Corona.

I was playing around with some chemicals I saw on You-Tube and tried it.
I thought it looked ok so I listed it on Ebay. After fees and shipping I break even.
It's fun coloring coins but they don't all turn out good. I did an ASE and it took less than 2 minutes to get good colors. I put a Libertad in the same solution for 30 minutes and it never turned.

Nice batch back from IGC Grand! Very choice coins too.
Got these Copper Elders o/s on Large Cents.
This one has Liberty's ear on Elder's cheek.

Reverse on this one is fairly strong.
Thank you!

I have those I will have to give that a try! Great idea.

Awesome !!!
My 32nd Moonlight Mint order has arrived, The Eagles Have Landed !!!
Thank You Very Much !!!!!
Without photos there is no proof of such elusive coins being in your possession,,,,,,,,,
While we wait this is my assorted DC box but I don’t think there all Peace dollars?
Looks like you have too many Peace's -- need to sell some, there friend
Awesome! I love how the SBAs are 20 years apart!
I likely misspoke, nothing gold in this order.
I just got some DC goodies that have eagles on them.
Actually only meant that I wanted to see photos of what you just received.
@felinfoel That's a real winner !

Yes AK I wanted a few more SS Octagons that Dan has for sale on his site.
I have one on the way. Thought it might show up today but NO. Hopefully by Saturday.
Just got my coin in today after a brief detour trip to North Dakota! Very happy with the SS Cob!
Cool there Gluggo -- is that the colorized version?
Mine went to North Dakota as well (Fargo). Hopefully soon.....

WOWZA that's a VERY nice piece there @Gluggo !
I usually don’t like these types of overstrikes, but this one is an exception. ;-)

Looks like you're having fun!
Don't forget to credit yourself too!
I recall this awesome goodie was your idea Gluggo , right ?
My favorite MMOH creation, I wish I owned it.
Please keep me in mind if you foolishly decide to part ways ?
Lindy
It was a great idea!
Congrats to @Gluggo for thinking of it and Dan for striking it, both times!
That is a neat one. And a nice photo of it also.
Technically, however, it is a "2019" Open House strike, not a "2020" as indicated on the image.
My latest items. Used some eBay bucks to get the Ameros.

Nice coins and photos...
This great looking piece is available now and just 1 of 8.
Dan's creativity and artistry is quite evident on this one.
Anyone know who is F.H. Color Mix?
It looks pretty decent. I'm worried about catching something from it
I was playing around with some chemicals I saw on You-Tube and tried it.
I thought it looked ok so I listed it on Ebay. After fees and shipping I break even.
