    It has gotten very quiet here. Some of the people that post a lot have gone away. No new things posted in a while. All the way back into May to see new things. Where has everyone gone? Summer break? I hope DC puts some new items up for sale soon.......

    Yes, I do plan to make "2022" Morgan and Peace late this year, assuming that the US Mint does not. I will decide at that time what varieties to produce (Arabic date, Roman Date, mint marks, etc). Any such items will be over-struck on Morgan & Peace Dollars of 1878-1935.

    PS:
    I am currently recovering from another bout with Covid-19. This is the third time I've had it. February 2020, then October 2021, and now. I'm sure all three times were a different strain.

    I am feeling quite a bit better today than the couple of days prior, and it appears that this third round will have the shortest duration of the three episodes. This has put yet another delay in my production and new product offerings. But I expect to get back to work at the mint tomorrow (although I will remain self-quarantined for the time being).

    a 2022 reverse proof would be kool, just throwing that out there.

    Some buy wall art, instead I am lucky to add Carr Coinage Art to my mind palace.
    Stay strong Daniel !!!

    Covid is wacky now, even for quad vaxxers.

    Seems I need to deploy the n95s again.

  • Che_GrapesChe_Grapes Posts: 1,884 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I also had covid last week and it was terrible! But I finally tested negative today!!

    Meanwhile - agree with someone above that a 22 covid coin would be cool!
    I love your peace overstrikes - I’ll be on the lookout. I’m a huge fan...

    For those so inclined Dan has more 2022 Silver St. Gaudens up on the MM site.

    Cheers

    "OUT OF STOCK" and Mintage Figures page shows it as "MINTAGE (FINAL) 250".

    From the time I posted that they went out of stock, became available again and then went out of stock again last night.

  • alefzeroalefzero Posts: 977 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Hmm. I ordered 2 but I do not see them on My Orders. Checked PayPal and the payment cleared and all. Wonder if I wasn't logged in at the MM site when I bought them.

    No need asking this crowd which one they like better. ;)

    Congrats on both! I love the post because I was out of town when both my 2021 mint Peace coins and my Broken Sword antiqued Peace from Dan came in. I made the mistake of opening the Broken Sword first. My three Peace dollars from the mint seemed like a bit of a let down after that.

    Cheers

    Some thoughts...
    A 2022 low relief .999 version that would be close to as possible to the current Mint's product to bridge the gap (much like the proof 2009 DC ASE)? If over-struck on an ASE - that would be 2 mm larger - are there 38 mm .999 blanks available?

    Can we assume the 'broken sword' series is finished since a '1922' Broken Sword Peace would be similar to the original 1922 Peace?

    I can see a MCMXXII HR using the 2016 casting.

    I agree 100%. I had no interest in the 2021 US Mint items because they were not done as O/S coins. That what interests me the most.

    I do not plan on making any more "Broken Sword" pieces. The exact designs for "2022" Morgan over-strikes will be determined later. But most likely, they will be similar to 1879-1904. The Peace will be similar to 1921 and/or 1922.

    Thx for the clarification.

    Well, I’m bored….. so here I go again, here’s a picture of what I call my “Drooling Eagle“ that came from Dan’s 2022 Ultra High Relief Saint-Gaudens Winged Liberty ‼️👀‼️‼️
    It was purchased early after Dan put them up for sale….. it looks a little proof like. And the one on the right looks like matte proof to me….. it was purchased a while after my “Drooling Eagle “‼️Even if ANACS graded it a MS69, it’s my
    favorite one‼️‼️I even paid to have them “variety “ it………… but all they did was grade it MS69……. I was hoping they’d tell me why my Eagle’s drooling. Oh, well……. I love it, and that’s all that really matters‼️‼️‼️👀🎯‼️‼️‼️‼️

    Got this one on Ebay the other day. It's a 2013 MMOH Token o/s on a 2013 SAC Dollar.
    Mintage of apx. 150 (all combined denominations).


    Awesome pickup! This is one of my favorite Open House medal types!

    It would be great to get photos of all ~150 that were struck!

    Here are two of my favorites from this year though I have more.

    2013 MMOH O/S 2001-D Daniel Carr Bessie Coleman Antiqued Concept Dollar

    Sure is quiet around here………..so here’s one of my Lesher dollars, these are so kool‼️👀👍🎯‼️‼️Dan made it possible to purchase these with them “counter stamped” ( I’m thinking with anything you wanted…. and that was acceptable to Dan), and in so doing, you could make your Lesher dollar a one of a kind piece ‼️‼️👍🎯👀‼️‼️‼️
    When I saw these I started to understand the genius of Daniel Carr‼️‼️👍👍🎯‼️👀‼️‼️

    The one I’m showing is the one and only 2014 Lesher dollar that has “Pearl Harbor Never Forget” counter stamped…. along with the date of 7/12/1941.

    This is the only one struck with this counter stamped on it, and what makes this piece even more unique is that the date,(7/12/1942), has doubling in that date, and appears to be “ double struck” ‼️‼️👀👍👍🎯‼️I love this piece
    I’m gonna post pics and show another counter stamped Lesher dollar that doesn’t appear to be double struck‼️
    I love these…… and they will be part of my “ family “ as long as I live‼️‼️‼️‼️⁉️
    Dan’s the Man‼️👀👍👍🎯👍👍‼️






    Very nice @Nickpatton!

    It's great to see these unique counterstamped pieces!

    In todays mail, I do like the train stamps

    First off Twobit, awesome job with the image arrangement! Kind of conveys the experience one gets when that envelope shows up and gets opened!

    Secondly, there was some discussion of Dan wanting to try a different finish on the last of the 2022 silver Gaudens. The token in your image appears to be in more of a matte finish than the two earlier ones I have received and most of what I have seen posted. Have you noticed that or do you think it’s just lighting/angle?

    My experience is it’s not the lighting ‼️The early ones are a tiny bit proof like….. some better than others‼️‼️‼️👀‼️

    The later ones look like matte proof …….. and as usual, I can’t tell which ones I like better…….. both‼️‼️👍👀🎯👍‼️‼️Dan’s tha man‼️‼️👍👀🎯👍👍⁉️‼️‼️‼️👀‼️‼️‼️⁉️

    P.S………. If you look above in this thread, I posted both kinds in the same lighting….. along with my “Drooling Eagle “ ‼️

    It's a matte finish, I would like to see it without the stars & wings.
    Although here in the Philly area it's said "The wings the thing"

    Lol. Had not heard that saying before but it's been quite some time since I was down there. I come for the cheesesteaks but stay for the amazing history.

    Thanks for answering my question and again, great photography and layout of the images.

    I did the design, sculpting, and engraving on those. But the coloring was done elsewhere (I don't know where).
    I don't have a photo of the color-enamel version. But there are photos of the silver and brass medals on this page (about half way down):
    moonlightmint.com/other.htm

    Here are the pictures from the page linked above:
