1922s My 5th Peace $

Jzyskowski1 · November 29, 2021 8:07PM

Finally got a beaver 🦫 I’ve been looking for. WW2 especially the 42 has been tricky. Price on these is always good but the dates can be a little tough 😉

@SonnyD Good looking 1444 Trier piece. Do you have any other dated pre 1501 pieces?

Not at this time, this is my only medieval right now.

I'm fortunate to have recently received a large collection from my father and now I'm hooked. These are the 3rd and 4th purchases I've made of my own but 1st and 2nd to receive. My first purchases, type 1 and 2 2021 ASE, will be presented by Santa. I didn't have any preserved Kennedys or Ikes so I thought these two beauties were a good start.

Hopped across the border for this one but it is very cool 😉 And will live with my US fractionals ⛄️

Great to see you have added to the collection. Just a heads up that leaving the barcode allows people to look the coin up. If you take the time to remove the cert # you may want to cover that as well.

My latest and a long time want list item finally found!

CoinHoarder · December 2, 2021 9:13AM

Received these today from a BST transaction. The coins look even better than in the picture. Smooth, problem free transaction. Love that BST!

coinsarefun · December 4, 2021 1:31AM

My 1848 CAL o/s on my 1876-S Liberty Head Double Eagle from Daniel Carr arrived a day early……..and it’s really pretty! Just the right amount of ghosting to show the date of the O/S coin.

Jzyskowski1 · December 4, 2021 7:47AM

Here’s the first new addition to my dime album. Yesterday I put the 10 that were here, in their places. I am pleasantly surprised with the quality of the album 😉

I just picked up from the PO. Won this on GC this last weekend - I had to bid like I wanted it

1876-S Type I/I Trade Dollar. Lightly cleaned. AU58 details, or so, to me. Needed the die state for this die pair. Nice obverse radial die break crossing the crack at the stars. The first three stars also exhibit die fatigue.

Portross · December 6, 2021 5:20PM

Just received another coin for my Peace dollar rattler set, this required an aggressive bid but I think it’s worth it. In addition to the bean, it’s the B1 early die type with detached olive branch.

Jzyskowski1 · December 6, 2021 5:57PM

At $2 each they are very nice

cointime · December 6, 2021 6:26PM

Although this coin is not a new purchase to me, it is cool since I just got this back from PCGS where it crossed over from a NGC MS65. It is now a MS-65+

An admittedly flawed, but really cool coin.

Catbert · December 7, 2021 5:17PM

This thread gives me an excuse to post my proof Barber half again. It is the only proof in my collection and it really has a lot of flash. I know it is a cameo (not on the OGH label) but wonder if it is a DCAM with its strong mirrors. Dunno! In any event, I was happy to pick this up at the Baltimore show. I'm cool with a one coin purchase at a show since it needs to be special to me. Not cheap, unfortunately

Mrweaseluv · December 8, 2021 3:34PM

couple of lil pickups for my type set.. both under 1/2 list so I'm a happy camper lol couldn't pass up the quarter for a 20 or the half for 30

Amazing looking coin!

How many inches are the mirrors?

PCGS defines PL as 2-4 inches and DMPL as over 6 inches.

PCGS wrote:

PCGS defines surface Prooflike as clear reflection in the fields on both sides as viewed from two to four inches away. A misty effect or striations may impede the reflectivity.

The PCGS definition for Deep Mirror Prooflike is clear reflection in the fields on both sides from at least six inches away. There must be full, undistorted reflectivity on both the obverse and reverse.

Reminds me of this thread:

Nice coins aren't cheap and cheap coins aren't nice...

crito_is_baaack · December 10, 2021 9:49AM

PCGS VF35 half cent. Only one side because my cell phone sux at taking coin pics..

I wonder if someone at the mint got fired in 1808 for misplacing the 8 punch. Hmm.. in deep thought...
