Something isn't quite right about the bottom row. The reverse shows the small olive branch and "STRUCK ON A USA SILVER DOLLAR" at the bottom. It should have a "Die Pair 2" certificate, not a "Die Pair 1" certificate like that shown.
So either I supplied the wrong certificate or the certificate is not for that particular over-strike.
Please verify.

The "circulation" process has caused many of them do develop reddish-golden hue (which is not unattractive, in my opinion).

Anyone notice the diameter of the 1805 dollar? Mine is about 41mm (measured with my trusty desk ruler). But it's overstruck on a Peace or Morgan dollar (38.1 mm).
It looked "oversized" at first glance. And sure enough, I had to trim a black ring so it'd fit an I-38 airtite capsule.
I'm guessing the "flattening" mentioned in the MM Production Blog intentionally created a larger diameter similar to an original Draped Bust dollar ("approx. diameter 39 - 40 mm" according to my Redbook).

The diameter of original Draped Bust Dollars can vary. I have one here and it measures 40mm. So they are definitely larger than a Morgan Dollar. The over-striking expands them a little further (to 41mm, as previously noted).
Hello Daniel.
Received my 1805 Draped Bust, Die Pair 2, High Grade today.
There is a very visible' scratch' on the Obverse, from the T in States all the way to the Eagles Beak and through its head to the S in Pluribus, visible with eyes, no louple needed, it is a semi-circular arc, mowing to the left side of coin.
Is there a die problem?

No complaints... I think the size is terrific!
Likewise, someday I'm hoping you'll make a Draped Bust half dollar.
Make it 1799, 9 Over 8.

It is almost certainly not a "scratch" but actually a remnant of the host coin design (Morgan or Peace).
But accidents can happen. Can you post a picture ?
From your description of the "sctatch", it sounds like it could be the back of Liberty's neck on a Peace Dollar (I over-struck some with the Bust (eagle) reverse placed over the Peace obverse rotated 180 degrees).
Regardless, you can send it back for refund or exchange if you like.
Has Dan ever mentioned doing one of those 1 Trillion Coins that Sam was thinking about for a while?
Might sell a few of those. 😄
Already done in 2013. These were 39mm "hard times tokens" minted in pewter (shown, 174 minted), brass (88 minted), copper (89 minted), and 999 silver (one-troy-oz, 185 minted) :
I received this a couple of days ago but just now got around to posting it. The 1902-S United States / Philippine Peso with the triple S mint mark and straight serif on the 1. If you're not familiar with the series, it ran from 1903-1912. It's a beautiful coin and fits right in with my U.S. / Philippine set.

Please pardon my ignorance. Why are you posting this on the Dan Carr thread? Did he make these at one time? The coin looks too-good-to-be-true; just as if DC made it. I suggest you send that amazing MS-70 Peso to PCGS as it certainly should be the finest known.

Hmm, second that one. I think I may get one of the Philippine pesos as I got a Caballito (1915) as I had wanted the 1907 but there was an ordering glitch. Then the price rise....

have you considered running out the life of some dies to produce naturally occurring errors. cracks/breaks/cuds/clashes etc
they could be a series unto themselves.
perhaps even sell ONLY the ones with the breaks/cuds etc so no early die state examples exist.
it would be funny/neat to see a die run into oblivion and then the coins it would produce.
.
Great idea! At one Summer Seminar long ago, I made a set of errors on the tokens. Starting with a planchet, a planchet w/clip, a normal token, a token w/clip, a very week strike, an off-center, a double strike, a double strike one off-center, etc.
That would make a great "Strike to Order " offering of about a dozen small coins from retired dies. Error collectors could even request specific errors and they would cost more. It is the American Way. Fill a need and become rich.
