    I really like it, and I’m a sucker for 1921s. :)

    Yes, I like the Circam® look! The definition it gives to the eagle feathers is great.

    Has a pewter hue to it...

    I generally like toning that highlights a coin's design, and that does. Very nice!

    I like the look, I do not think it one I would "overpay" for.

    Nice...I like the look also! I had a really nice Peace dollar (I think it was a 22 or 23) with nice cameo like yours and I sold it a while ago...sort of wish I had not 'cause the detail was really accentuated by the toning. Thanks for posting!

    Great looking Peace $. :)

    Nice detail on that Peace dollar, looks solid for the grade. Cheers, RickO

  • jedmjedm Posts: 3,172 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Definitely I like that look! Without disclosing the amount you paid for it I have no opinion on whether you overpaid or not. If you feel like you've overpaid then you have the best idea of that. Either way it seems to be very attractive to lots of us. :)

  • TomBTomB Posts: 22,115 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I might be the only one, but I don't find this coin attractive. The spotting/stains on the reverse are bothersome and the lack of any discernible patina on the highpoints of the coin make me think it was previously "improved". I realize I am a jerk with this opinion, but you wanted feedback so I thought it might be okay to write.

    It is nice, not really my cup of tea but I can certainly see the appeal.

    If this coin were dipped it would be a dull unnaturally white AUXF(I would have guessed AU). The character it has would be stripped away.

    I think this is a nice coin-- the natural circ appearance gives a sense of authenticity and adds to the appeal IMO.

    Idk, there may be ugly hiding under the toning. I've found that if I submerge a toner in acetone and shine a light on it, i can see what's under the toning. If it's ugly i leave it be, if it's beautiful i consider a dip.

  • Joe_360Joe_360 Posts: 1,796 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I'll buy it from you...

    That look is most appealing to me! I like it!
