I was one of the early big Daniel Carr buyers. I stopped buying his wonderful tokens only because I ran out of room in my safe deposit boxes.
I have probably the most 1964-D peace dollars (mostly bulk handled) and 1964-D Morgan dollars and 2007 through 2012 full Amero sets. They are all in the ANACS holders with Daniel original signatures in ink.
I see I missed out on a few awesome new DC offerings particularly his 1886-O trade dollar!
Replacements arrived along with my other items. The replacements were the trade dollar & flowing hair, both went missing at the post office.
The 1862 P& RR Smith has the wrong insert.
I am expecting that a package from Moonlight Mint will arrive today. So, I went to @dcarr 's catalog to read the details of the J.J. Conway and P&RR Smith pieces (under the Pioneer Tokens category).
What a fantastic read! I truly appreciate Dan's work to document much more than simply mintage figures. Dan's documentation increases the historical value of the pieces that he produces. Thank you.

The 2024 Clark Gruber & Co 41mm Octagon, 1.5 Troy Oz Sixty Dollars Proof-Like Minted by Dan the Man! I want to thank Mr Dan for making such a nice one here. Thank you Dan!
I noticed the "1793" Flowing Hair over-strike“ now reads “discontinued”. Anyone know what the scoop is? Most of Dan coins still show a price after retirement.
Must have been the jinx -they came today. Pictures to follow.
Dan - why no signature on the gold? No huge deal but I always liked the touch.
Impressions: the PL properties of the Clark, Gruber 1/4 eagle are steadily improving. Beautiful!
The Smith & Co. $5 has a distinctly greenish appearance like the CG 2013 0.825 coin.
Love that Milled British (1830-1960) Well, just Love coins, period.

If I learned how to spell it would help...P&RR SMITH.
@dcarr
I am wondering why on these JJ Conway Tokens you counterstamped .999 fine silver on them rather than incorporating it into the die?
With counterstamps , one die can be used for four different metals . Or Dan just likes to counter stamp stuff 😜
And perhaps consistent with that original period / producer?

That makes sense,,,,, I never considered that.
Day 15 and no info on my registered shipment to PCGS (sent 2-20).
Says arriving late but in transit to next location.....
The USPS is slowly killing me.....
