  Looks to me like Benjamin hit the bottle a little too hard and became Godless.
  
  The peace dollar is interesting, but it's not surprising to me that it didn't grade. The blue is unusual for that series.

  Tough luck on the Peace. The TrueView sure turned out nice. That's the double whammy. Nice pictures of coins that are genuine!

  When I cannot even read the letters "In God We Trust" on the TrueView, I am not surprised at the grade. The 1924 Peace Dollar looks spectacular. I have never seen one quite like, but the graders probably have not either. I do think that the toning could be due to natural causes, and if someone artificially toned it, it would be hard to replicate. I might submit that one again for reconsideration.

  I don't think that Peace would ever grade

  As opposed to a thread that states GTG, where it is expected that the reader is on his/her own, it always bothers me when an OP talks about his/her coins and leaves it up to the reader to track down the info that the poster is talking about.
  
  Why don't you just say that the Peace dollar graded Genuine - UNC Details (91 - Questionable Color) and the Franklin graded Genuine- UNC Details (93 - Planchet Flaw), instead of forcing us to look up the cert numbers? Obviously I guessed about the 91, but still, you should spell things out.

  My apologies!
  
  From one Oxy grad to another...it wasn't my intent to annoy you with additional research...just trying to give everyone an opportunity to judge these coins on what I consider to be very accurate pictures without a preconceived thought of a designated grade from our hosts.
  
  If I was not such a lousy photographer I would post these coins before sending them in to get everyone's thoughts with a GTG.
  
  With that said here are two more and by request.... the grades are 65 and 65+ respectively :
  
  
  
  

  All the best,
  
  Rob
