    I got my 2 in the mail today. Very nice! One had a little black marks on the side, but I figure since I was lucky enough to get 2, I got one of the worse ones probably. The other was super nice.

    I will try to get some pictures tonight. It has been a crazy day here. Cousin in the hospital, my parents car's battery dies so they use mine, then they come home in that with a flat. Comcast box goes out, so had to go there to get a new one, all on top of having a newborn to take care of. Whew!

    He may have meant mosaics as he clearly bought starbursts prior

    But yes indeed the starbursts are sold out

    My PL Morgan arrived today as well.

    The underlying devices of the donor coin are so visible to me they are a distraction.

    Debating whether to return.

    Some are like that. The original outlines tend to show more readily on proof-like over-strikes than satin over-strikes.
    But no problem if you want to return for refund or exchange.

    Used a 10 power loupe to 'scrutinize' my PL.
    No evidence of ghosting.
    There is a bit of ghosting on my High Grade one, only visible under magnification.
    Mostly on the stars and one wing, actually looks pretty cool.

    My MS 64's are perfect also. Just ordered two more 64's in PL. One of these days I've got submit a boatload of Dan's larger coins. Totally gave up selling these raw on eBay because the listings were pulled so many times eBay coughed out a warning. Yet other users sold just fine raw.

    Say what? I've never had a raw Carr in the flip removed by ebay. Although I haven't sold that many.

    Wait for an ANACS special. I just had 14 Carr items slabbed by them for $8 each shipping included with their fall special (over now). I sure would pay up though if/when PCGS finally starts slabbing them.

    It was a few years ago and I no longer have the listing information. It all happened during the transition into eBay's fantasy coin category. At the time I had more Carr stuff listed than anyone on eBay and I figured someone wanted a piece of that market enough to play that card. I was moving into a different hobby/business (inspired by Dan btw) and I pulled all my listings.

    I'll keep an eye out for the ANACS special.

    been sold out for years.

    you might consider the price insanely high, especially when compared to release prices, however these are very collectible and bring collector prices much like the high grade 50 cent piece of 1964 brings much more than face or even silver value.

    I'm also surprised the "2-gram" silver owl is still available. If I interpret the description correctly, these rounds are actually 2.9 - 3.0 grams. Makes me think the intent was 1/10 oz, but came up a bit short.
