    My Morgan subscription is marked to be delivered today, however the Peace is still marked as processing. Anyone else still have subscriptions in processing?

    My order that was processing changed to shipping method USPS
    When the shipping method changes to one thing only that means printing of shipping label is about to occur. Shipment is usually within 24-48 hours

    I wonder if the Mint will put a Director's strike certificate in the Proof or Reverse Proof versions?

    My insider at the post office mentioned fedex may strike. She’s lovely as are all my “girls” at our funky little small town post office 🏤
    Just so happens that all 8 employees are ladies. I love flirting with them and they mostly understand that I’m harmless 😂😂🙏
    We talk about coins. I’ve gotten them a little interested. Try to share my purchases with them. Showed them about W quarters.

    Hummm...is anyone else's order history showing the actual Morgan and Peace dollar orders...PLUS a "blank" order for $0.00 that lists all the items included in the real orders?

    More mint accounting/systems fun!

    Yes, mine are the same, I had the subscription order at $0.00. When they hit CC and shipped they made a separate new order number and the $0.00 is still there.

    It is most likely that all Peace were shipped from Memphis and all Morgan’s from Texas. That leaves the question of where are orders that include both coins are shipped from :o

    Don’t know if that is necessarily correct. Both my Peace and Morgan came today and it looks like they both originated from Fulfillment Center Memphis, Tn.

    Note I said most likely. Next to nothing is etched in stone at the mint.
    Always subject to uncountable exclusions. It's the mint. Remember that box of chocolates thing. :D

    I second that...I just received ALL 4 orders from Memphis....2 Morgans and 2 Peace.

    Was it possibly an East of the Mississippi/West of the Mississippi split???

    Pretty sure it has to be unopened box from the mint. In other words, they have to be the one to open the box.

    I thought FDOI labels were not available to the general public.

    I think you are right. I was thinking first strike and the like.

    This is a little strange. According to tracking the Morgan package started in Coppel, TX, while the Peace package started in Memphis. On the Morgan package, delivered just minutes ago, the return address was the Memphis Fulfillment center, not Coppel, TX.

    The Peace comes tomorrow.

    so the first day of issue is simply a label created for sellers to get a higher premium for their merchandise, its really sad to thing pcgs and ngc have sold out for the benefit of the people who look to profit off of people and their notion that the label actually means something. i would imagine since both coins sold out the first day they are ALL FDOI .

    Yes... give us enough coins to grade at once, and we will give you a special label. Money talks!

    No signed cert for me, but I noticed new security tape on the delivery box. Both of mine shipped from Memphis.

    After all the excitement of getting my signed COA, PCGS will not encapsulate and pair with the coin, because I should have sent the entire MInt sealed box in for submission. How would I know there is a signed COA inside?

    I guess rules are rules, but this is a big let down.

    Is there any noticeable difference in finish, strike, or characteristics between the directors strike and the other peace dollars?

    You should have started your conversation off with our hosts by saying:
    "How much extra do I have to pay for you to XYZ..."

    You know that saying... No, not the box of chocolate thing...the other one.

    They have a firm rule that the mint sealed box is the only way they will encapsulate the COA and pair with the coin.

    This is basically what they said to me........read the link.

    Without having to worry about labels, the special COA represents an important provenance for the coin.

    The only thing I could think of was that someone could swap coins to have an MS70 Director's Strike which might be more valuable than an MS69, for example. Other than that scenario there is no reason at all to swap out coins.

    Nothing I could find. I looked and compared to three other Peace $1's.

    Still, even without being slabbed by a TPG, there should still be a premium. It’s a pretty rare bird…… only 0.08% of the Peace dollars will have one.

    Mine too. Peace coin arrived on Saturday. The Morgan was supposed to arrive today, but as usual delayed in USPS. Most likely, it will come tomorrow.

    Question for the knowledgeable numismatists out there: Would these uncirculated Morgan and Peace dollars be considered burnished? As I understand it, all of the Mint’s uncirculated silver coins are made this way.

    Since these are only .859 oz vs the one oz burnished ASE, mint is not using ASE planchets for these and it is very unlikely they are burnished. Only US modern burnished coins I am aware of are the gold and silver eagles.
