For many years the East Detroit Coin Club in Michigan had a member who struck the club's medals on a hydraulic press. Some coins were used as planchets.

I hadn't given much thought to the strike method. It's obviously weak. If anyone could make it themselves, surely General Dynamics Astronautics could.

Looks like a Bashlow restrike over a Peace dollar.
Yep, it sure is. Pretty neat piece.

Is it for certain that this was struck by Bashlow? Could this have been struck by Empire Coin Company, Elder, or other previous owners of the Dickeson dies?
The "S" on the lower left of the reverse is only present on the Bashlow strikes.

Should have looked for that. Thanks!
