    Do you have a reverse image of the first Peace dollar and the Lincoln?

    Unusual and somewhat interesting. Typical "Braddick" coins :D

    Also, the first one appears to be a legit registry lowball coin. Could go for a nice premium if it is a "Low Pop"!

    I get why.

    I just can't see taking the time to chase these myself. Too many other interests.

    But I like them.

    The wife got a really nice kitchen and only left you enough for " 3 coins " ?

    Depends on the price. Depends on what makes you happy.

    These would not make me happy unless they are well below melt.

    Why would someone be entitled to silver well below melt just because of appearance? Silver is still silver and once refined is indistinguishable from a 99.9999 fine bar.

    Because if I was buying at melt I would be choosing more eye-appealing material. Below melt and now I am interested in any silver for the reason you state. Just stating my opinion on what would make me happy.

    :o I am speechless... However, people collect beanie babies and belly button lint... so, if you are happy then, honestly, I can say... Enjoy, have fun. Cheers, RickO

    @braddick

    I'd like to know what your paid for the cent and if at auction how many under bidders?

    Just curious if uglyfying zinc cents has full-time gig potential? ;):D

    I think the '23 is OK, but I also think it would grade an '02', as opposed to a one.....
    The '22 doesn't do anything for me and the Lincoln is just PMD.

    When the Peace dollar arrives, let us know if it is a counterfeit.

  • machoponchomachoponcho Posts: 355 ✭✭✭

    The Peace Dollar probably would grade an FR02, but might get bagged for light pitting. I know you like your lowball coins.

    Nice original toning, NT. Not to my taste, but sure is original. Most coins that look like that end up getting dipped which is why you don't see many like that.

    Artificial wear. Look at the housed areas, like the earhole and the steps. How do they exhibit so much detail yet everything else around it is worn. The greyish color where it is worn away is another indicator the wear was accelerated. Your Peace Dollar has honest wear. This Lincoln looks like it has dishonest wear. ;)

    I have existed since the creation of this world and will exist until its end. Only my form will change. For these 80 human life years, I have the benefit of having a functioning body and consciousness. I will not waste this opportunity.
