There was a coin club that used the gold Indian design for a medal they just released. Does anyone remember the club name? I put an order in and was supposed to hear from them by now but I haven’t.

I thought this CC morgan Pattern was done after this J1512, but the reverse is slightly different.
Yes, the Eagles are different. The one I used is from the reverse of the 1918 Lincoln/Illinois half dollar. I liked it better, and it was a lot easier to get a Lincoln half to use as a model coin compared to one of the original Morgan patterns.

Thank you @HalfDime and @dcarr for the correction and clarification regarding the inspiration behind the 1877-CC Morgan Pattern Dollar.

Here is a 1963 Scarface Kennedy Dollar, Eisenhower's head left a scar down the front of Kennedy's face.
This coin has a large mintage of 1,671. I notice on Ebay it appears there are about four other scarfaces listed like this one (along with ones without a scar).
Breen wrote long ago he saw like 2 rolls of the previously unknown 58 DDO on a bourse floor late 50's-early 60's when they were all owned by Charles Ludovico who was a former 1958 era Philly Mint employee. Breen recalls the story and names Chas Ludovico in one of the two books I own of his.

I am guessing more orders are for more than one of Daniel's 58D VDB Wheatie DDO fantasy ?
I have three incoming.

Yes and the coin lost just a bit of specialness & had hoped the mintage would have been held to 100. Oh well, it looks rather nice.
I've got my 1958 DD and like it a lot. Quick question for Dan if he reads this: how do you prep copper blanks before overstrikes and do you rinse before and/or after (if so what with?)?

The host cents are cleaned via a mild abrasion process. There is no rinse.
However, if one develops a mild spotty discoloration, a brief soak in clear vinegar (followed by thorough rinsing) should cure it.

I saw a silver on already graded MS70, so I bought it.

This one? https://forums.collectors.com/discussion/1108210/the-2025-daniel-carrs-madison-county-coin-club-medal
I reserved a couple and they requested a check about a week ago. Sent the check and medals are in the mail. Email came directly from Harold at MCCC.
@Twobitcollector thanks for the feedback. I bought two silver and had a gold restamped as a 1933. Curious to see the interest in these.
There is an 1860 Mormon silver half eagle coin just recently done, if anyone can track down the distributor.
A graded one was posted on Ebay.

Nicely done on the 1933 MS70!

The first pic of the Dragon piece is on Ebay. It almost looks high relief.

Coolamundo.....
......First purchase of the year.
.
Orders are shipping.
Why isn't the date doubled more than it is?
.
.
Here are images from MM and mine.
Looks to be spot on...
.
I mean it doesn't look as doubled as a 1955 Double Die?
COINFACTS has this one.
.
OK, I see where I was wrong,,,,, Dan's coin is modeled after a 1958 Double Die, not a 1955 coin.
received my notice also.

Mintage went up significantly on the double dies looks like.
Indeed, doubled Doubled Die mintage since I last looked.

Very nice doubling.
Here are some Morgans together. Some have clash marks.
Love the clashed Morgans!
But why hasn't Dan made any clashed Peace dollars? Maybe we'll see 'em someday.

I reached out to the Seller on Ebay but didnt get any kind of response..
If you happen to strike some on blank gold planchets and offer them to the public I would be interested in one.
If not no worries, I've missed out on a number of $5 issues over the years due to various reasonings,
Happy Collecting folks!
It's all about what the people want...
