Love these pieces and I have several myself. I am very interested in buying one of the incredible Winged Double Eagle overstrikes - please message me if anyone is willing to part with one!
Welcome to the forum.
Good luck finding the Winged Double Eagle.
What are some of the pieces you own? Got any pics?
Agree on the Winged Liberty double eagle overstrikes. It's one of my favorites.
Good luck finding one. i haven't seen one available in a long time.
Lindy I believe they are referencing the 1 oz gold Saint MCMVI .

Just ran across this one posted by @USAROK on the bay. It's pretty awesome
Hey Zoins - you were at the 2020 MMOH and this wasn't struck there? Are there more than one MMOH each year? I see it back up on the bay today. I agree it's a neat piece but I would not have done this to a cc coin...pretty ballsy...

Yes, there can be more than one MMOH each year. This wasn't struck when I was there. I'd guess @USAROK visited sometime afterwards and there was "another" MMOH where this was struck. He has some really nice MMOH pieces.
As for the coin, many coins that area overstruck are problem coins so I'm not sure if this was one. When a nice coin comes across, Dan will usually mentioned that and ask if you really want to restrike it.
Here are two I wanted but had to pass on given other items on my list, including more of Dan's pieces!
These were sold for $670 tonight which seems like a great price given the gold content.
I believe these were struck for Chopper's.
I saw those (or some just like them) and wanted to buy but there was nothing in the listing (besides the title) or on the coin/slab saying they were actually Carr pieces. I couldn't find a reference to them in the "Catalog with Mintage Figures" on Dan's site either. Are they in the catalog? How are they classified, as they're not overstrikes?

The "1878" Stellas are listed in the "other" section because they were a commissioned project only.
The "1879" Grove Minting Stellas are also a commissioned project and are also listed on the "other" page (about 2/3 of the way down): moonlightmint.com/other.htm

Hat tip to DC for giving me a fantastic and informative private tour of his Moonlight Mint on Labor Day. Enjoy the pics; there were many other items I wanted to capture but I learned that some of it was very sensitive,...I’m respecting that here. Let’s just say I now know the O/S process. Very cool and ingenious. Just before I was ready to go on my way, DC gifted me with a very nice multi-struck Buffalo. I’m thankful for his time and generosity.
Wow!! That's awesome! And on my list for a visit there too if this Covid crap would simmer down.
That multi-strike buff is radical (dude)!! Thanks for sharing

Exclusively for KOTCT, Dan Carr annually produces Medals with a unique design. If history is any indication, in the Fall you'll be able to order those medals.
Older medals often sell for a premium on the bay, but sometimes you can snag a bargain if you're lucky.

OK, how crazy did people get with their orders? He certainly released a lot of material. I usually get just one of each type of overstrike and not all the dates or circulated ones.....
Love that Milled British (1830-1960) Well, just Love coins, period.

I couldn't decide which of the two IH cents to include in my order. So I ordered both.
Nowadays that's as crazy as I get.

Got the Native Head Nickels and the 3D Jefferson Nickel ............so far.
Got the Flying Eagle, the earlier Indian cent, and one Buffalo.
Now a question: Does DC email existing customers when new items are posted up or do I need to keep checking the website every 30 minutes like I have been?

Is this the 3 ounce creation? If so, I was stunned when they launched in 2019, these are awesome.

Anyone pick up any Dan Carr pieces this weekend?
I picked up 3 including an Open House piece and 2 So-Called Fellowship pieces Jeff Shevlin struck with Dan.
1878 Stella Concept

These were sold for $670 tonight which seems like a great price given the gold content.
I believe these were struck for Chopper's.
Dan struck these for Jared Grove, which are available for $875.
Mintage is just:
I was lucky and picked up 3 when they first came out.

Those are beautiful. I have the 1881 too and it's a great piece.
The other ones are slightly different. The Jared Grove one is a 1879 and the Chopper one is a 1878.
Of note, Dan doesn't have a Flowing Hair yet so it seems like the 1878 was paired with a Flowing Hair done by another mint.

I've watched Dan's offerings almost every day for new production. Were these August 2020 ones listed there? I didn't see them.
No not available, I guess these are private commission.
I check often too, but for Roman Numerals in Date Peace Fantasy
Where are they available, I wonder? I lke the COVID Silver Eagle.
I think there is a Coin Show in Loveland soon, not 100% sure though.
New stuff up.....
Early 2021 for that one.
Oh...you're killing me on the new additions! Triple MM Jefferson War Nickel!

Not this time.
Thanks Bullsitter.
Several items I've been waiting for.
Placed my order today.

Nice images and cool medal. I always wanted one of those and missed out.
What kind of camera do you use if you don't mind me asking?
dont take pictures have someone else do it
Love the Flying Eagle design. Hopefully we'll see a circulated version. Maybe a larger-cent version too, like the 1854-55 patterns.
And maybe a Proof version based on the "skinny" flying eagle pattern.

Welcome to the CU Forum and the best Daniel Carr, Moonlight Mint thread around.
I'm off to a relatively slow start, but am looking to rectify that shortly . . . . . .
This is the only DC piece I have at the moment. I am expecting to grow the "hoard" shortly however.
