This is my 1964 Peace Dollar.
I had it made into a bar for ease of storage and was tired of the controversy.
Sorta miffed they didn't put the provenance on it as instructed.
A great opportunity if someone would like to partner up with me on it.

No provenance.....no pay day. This is where having a QDB or similar well known numismatist or world class dealer do all the verifications and chain of custody. It has to be bullet-proof. That costs money. Colonel Jessup might do it for 20% of the take. On 2nd thought, maybe LT Kaffee would carry more weight with the jurors. Jessup is still dealing with that Code Red (ie PCGS code 86).

I'm in at 1% if we're talking $2M each, but at $20K per piece, I would barely break even after shipping ,
And I've got a pardon in my pocket if I can sell off the excess Kim-Trump NPRK-USA Summit medals. Any idea what those melt at?

I haven’t been around here in some time, but let me express my total support for Roger Burdette. The trial judge never let him adequately testify. Overall, he likely knows more about the history of these coins than anyone on the planet.
As to selling the gold, try this scenario: the Mint takes 10,000 or so ounces of .900 fine bars made from old U.S. coins melted in the 1930's from the Fort Knox pile, melts it down along with the 10 Langbord $20's, and makes 40,000 commemorative $5's marketed as "Contains U.S. gold minted in 1933!" -- in 2033!

Who would have thought that the OP would have elicited some of the comments in this thread, or was everyone just having fun? Hard to tell sometimes.

@Coinstartled I think you should melt your favorite coin to test the resale market
Be glad to...
Its worth simply what a buyer is willing to pay for it...no more and no less
Put those melted coins into graham cracker holder and I would be interested!
Don't forget the marshmellos.
