Thank you and Dan still has them available if you some....

I'm a fan of the BLUES. They seem much more natural for toned silver.

What I don't get is why these are grading as MS? They have been "circulated" by Mr. Daniel by tumbling action if I understand correctly.

Maybe they know it's "Mint Circulated"

I got 2 yellow, 1 blue and 1 white!

Here's a photo I posted a little while ago with one of each along with my pastel-colored circulated 1919 Broken Sword.

Wow - you got the Full Monte there @zoins !! Nice flock!!

GRANDAM

I had 2 that just had very slight yellow just around the rays and the outline of the portrait,,,,,,,,, didn't like it so I dipped it off. If the whole coin had the same overall tone it would have been OK but as is I didn't care for it.

They are now WHITE!!!!!

Hard Times Token idea for Daniel Carr.
International Monetary Fund SDR currency.

The IMF wants to create 650 Billion dollars of world currencies out of thin air.
I think this should be commemorated.

That’s still much less than the $3 trillion requested. It’s $650 billion because that’s the limit without getting Congressional approval. If so, will we see $650 billion per year?

I wonder if any other countries will contribute?

Thanks! I love them, but I’m still missing a lot, like the non-double struck blue and other double struck years. I have multiples of all the regular issues I believe.

Ah sorry - thought that yellow antiqued was a 1921 -- but it's all good!

So the 2021 Centennials are drying up now, Octagons soon. Get 'em while you can!

One of my favorite KOTCT medals, primarily for it's design simplicity and elegance.

I finally captured one in silver. This example has some nice beginning toning.

I just got my ANACS grade for my MXMXXI counter-stamped, blue antiqued Peace Dollar O/S.
MS65

Curiously, in an earlier submission, I submitted two MXMXXI counter-stamped, gold antiqued Peace Dollar O/S, and received ANACS grades of AU55 on both.

I'm happy with the MS65, but now scratching my head a bit on the two AU55s. Maybe because they were submitted so early after DC released them. Certainly not the difference in the antiquing? Not a big deal to me - they are all great pieces, IMO.

I checked the ANACS pop report for DC 1921 tokens:
AU55 - 3, MS 63 - 1, MS65- 1, and MS70 - 4.

I am assuming that the 70s are from the 100 non-antiqued/non-counter-stamped issues, and the others are from the antiqued/counter-stamped issues. I know that 2 of the 55s, the 65, and one of the 70s are coins that I own.

I have the 63....

.I'm so glad I saw this and you guy's pointed me to the right direction...I'm very happy with Mr @dcarr work. Its extremely
eye appealing and pretty!

The last one. The first one I did darker to show off the toning

Second - bright and cheery & makes me wish I'd waited for the gold-toned over the blue.

I prefer the one that's more representative of the coin.

If you like the yellow one, they are still available. I'm also sure someone would be more than happy to trade or buy your darker one off of you.

Here are mine,,,,, the 1st one is WHITE that I dipped before grading,,,,,, the second one as I received.

Both look much better in hand,,,,,,, I can't get color right on silver coins.

Every batch comes out unpredictably different. So I can't be sure if there will be any more yellow ones.

Good reminder. I was under the assumption more of the yellow batch were available but perhaps not.

The variability is part of what makes collecting these so fun.

Go with the one that looks closest to its in-hand appearance.

coinsarefun

Thanks everyone. The lighter version does look more like in hand and @Bullsitter I agree I like the lighter
version best

Just got my circulated in hand. I was hoping for a blue and got one! Awesome piece.

Akbeez

How about another color variation? Just in -- I think this is my new fav -- blue/purple/pink --

coinsarefun

So what's shaken' at the DC moonlight mint?? Been quite so I thought to push this up with a new image I took of the
2017 Knights of the coin table overstruck on 2007 ASE

I've been saving up for the next releases. No telling what they'll be but I bet they're coolumundo...

7Jaguars

Danny seems to have the timing down fairly well - try to keep interest and not diluting the market too much.
Personally I like the overstrikes better than the medal issues (OK, I like the Clark Gruber gold pieces).
I hate when releases are near tax time though - LOL.

Congrats! I just got a blue and gold. I'll say that the blue & gold is super hard to photograph for me but looks gorgeous in hand! I took a few photos but I'm not very happy with them yet.

I have the following now:

• white
• blue
• gold
• blue & gold

SPalladino

The Centennial Morgan and the Centennial Peace 2oz 0.999 rounds are listed as "out of stock" when I checked today.
(as are the Buffalo OSs and the Clark Gruber octagonal and round issues)

Mintage of the Centennial Morgan listed as 73, and of the Peace Centennial as 151.

Beautiful! I'm happy that I purchased the ones that I did (2x Peace Centennial and 1x Morgan Centennial).

There was a pause in availability while I caught up on production and shipping of various products.
They are now available again but only for another month or so, and then that will be the end of those.

I am planning a similar piece with the theme being the centennial of the first (1921-D) Denver Mint silver dollars.

My apology for the misleading information. And, thank you for the correction!
I was regretting not picking up another of each.

Count me in when it comes out!

I just received another, couldn't refuse the color. This one is different from my other one with just a little yellowish toning. I'm supper digging' this one.

Gluggo and Zoins had some nice pieces made.

Gluggo had a 1918 BS Peace Dollar that looked pretty cool.
