    Great multi-struck coins!

    Love the:

    Dan made both 1911-D and 1911-S buffalo nickels so is it possible to identify the mintmark for the @Akbeez coin??

    We need to get PCGS to slab all these so we can get TrueViews :)

    Here's one of my favorites!

    For all these multistruck tokens, where did they come from?

    Were they special requests, or did DCarr sell them on ebay?

    MM Mint does not do special orders.

    Whereas Gallery Mint did them for me & several others in the know, that I know of.

    I ordered this on .999 Silver instead of copper with vine & bars edge rolled on and specifically multi struck flip over double struck at 35% off center @ 10 o'clock which I requested with my hand drawn clock position:

    I don’t think I could love those 2 anymore. I half the o/s with silver plug AU58 I had no idea it was available in gold.
    Now I must have one1 fantastic!!

    These two chain cents are interesting in how differently they present in different metals. The gold one has a mintage of 6. The circulated silver plug copper's mintage is 10.

    I think Dan and Ron would both think Dan is doing it right. Ron doesn't do coins any more and I think he got a little burned out making people happy with special orders. His primary focus now is on things that don't have mintage limits and there's a reason for that.

    I agree! These are gorgeous! 6 is an amazingly low mintage for something so iconic and beautiful!

  • alefzeroalefzero Posts: 977 ✭✭✭✭✭

    He struck over 500 of the silver plug BU satin finish. So the basic coin is available out there. I had to have it in circulated because it was so limited. The gold one is unreal. It just doesn't look like a chain cent, which is why I posted the comparison. The only thing I would have wanted different would have been AMERI, instead of AMERICA. But that's nitpicking at a crazy level of detail.

    Great info :+1:

    Can you tell by looking at it? Or just via the insert?

  • AkbeezAkbeez Posts: 2,696 ✭✭✭✭✭

    It takes a bit of “interpretation” 😳 to see the MM but I had to go look at the insert to verify

    Those are an exception because he worked on those years ago. The vintage dies used are from 2002.

    Tried to do USPS Informed Delivery. Apparently they will not allow it for Business PO Boxes. Cannot imagine the rationale behind that. But I guess I will need to keep checking the box for those Loveland packages.

  • Mr Lindy Mr Lindy Posts: 1,111 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I think Dan's shipping department can tell you the tracking number. I did this a few years ago before informed delivery became an option for me.

    I am sure others have seen this but just in case notice the 1936 Peace Dollar is now up to $300 and a screenshot of the mintage records shows Daniel did 5 double strike versions (now shows 105 total minted). I am sure a few people here were the lucky ones to get ahold of those special pieces. I was on early this morning and did not see any for sale.

    Maybe not yet listed for sale?

    Anyway, can't wait to see my normal 1936 Peace. Should arrive Monday.

    It also says, "First produced March, 2021" (just to the right of "$300").

    I'm guessing it's all easily fixable by Dan.

    It was a copy and paste “typo” from his 1931-S Peace Dollar blog. This coin has no S.

    Dan, thanks for posting.

    I like the idea of an auction for one or two of the "defective" 1936 Peace dollars. On ebay?

    FYI to the newbies: Save an ebay search for "Carr 1936" and you should automatically receive email notification.

    I’d like to see a fantasy Charlotte coin like an 1836 Charlotte Double Eagle. Maybe a 1799 (being the discovery of gold in NC) eagle with obv mintmark, also for Dahlonega as well. That would be cool.

    Right there with you. I plan to drop off my 3 Double Eagles at the Central States show. I wish there was a way to get them back without having them mailed.
