Nice find Twobitcollector.
This one was advertised as O/S an Ike, I bought it because it looks like it’s a Peace Dollar to me, hope I’m right, I’ll know when it’s shipped to my house. I think I see some sun rays on the host coin.

I also think it's a Peace dollar. You can see some of IGWT on the obverse.

.
I'm eager to see what he's planning for 2026. He has already produced 1776-2026 silver eagle overstrikes starting back in 2022. I think it would be cool to see him do a 2026 version of one of the 1876 Centennial Exposition medals!For example, a 2026-dated version of this:

Oh boy, I bought this 1932s Buffalo on eBay, and when I got it, it turned out to be a “double talking “ Buffalo, it’s got two mouths‼️👍

Attempting to regain my ability to post images on this fun site from my iphone.
Seems clunky, but maybe possible.
Wife is saying we should replace windows machines with apples.Hopefully posted:
A crescent clip SBA plate coin from my error coin archive and a fire mitigated 55 foot pine tree original house owner planted 6 feet from house in 1994.
I asked for another 6 inches of cut, thus the stump & the 6 inch puck remain.

If the person who purchased the Omega lincoln dies hires d. Carr to strike more, how many coins could be made before they fail?

Maybe VERY few? Or none?That is, I'm guessing cancelled dies are intentionally not structurally sound enough to withstand a high-volume minting process -- especially for a small die like the Lincoln cent.
Certainly I've never seen ANY Lincoln cents made with cancelled dies.
Maybe Dan will chime in with an expert opinion.

Dan struck no less than 340 items from the cancelled 1884 CC Morgan die pair 37 dies, which were over 130 years old and rusted. I'm sure that these dies are in better shape (especially the dies used for the gold 'cent" strikes which were far from a full production run).Steve Palladino

Off top of my head there's more than 340 pieces made from 1884 CC obverse and reverse dies and in combination with S reverse and CC & S reverses muled together too. When something pops up I revisit the mintages of these cool issues. But I never counted them all in total, so I could be wrong.
It would not surprise me if Moonlight Mint bid up 2025 Omega canceled 1c die lot.

Yes, I agree, since the obverse die was also used with the S mint die, IIRC. I didn't want to take the time count all of those other strikes with the 1884 obv., which is why I wrote "no less than 340 items from the cancelled 1884 CC Morgan die pair 37 dies"Steve Palladino

The cancel dies hold up well when they get put back in the press. I hope Dan gets access to the Omega dies. I have some of his cancel $5 olympic strikes and a couple Martha Washington, though Martha are uncanceled obverse die strikes.

I didn't know about those dies being sold. What did they sell for ?
They would probably work fine. I have a US Mint 1996 $5 (Olympic) reverse die that I have used without any problems.

$800,000 was the winning bid for the Lot that included the cancelled Omega dies.I'd love to see the Winner make a bunch of 3-coin sets with those dies. But I'm not getting my hopes up.

I would not have bought those dies had I known about the auction (I would like to own them, but the price was a lot more than I could have spent). If the owner contacts me, I will consider it

Those mega-coin bars are fantastic; they could be made at the end of the year representing DC's offerings for the year.

The problem is making enough for a product listing that remains available for more than a few minutes.
I'd probably have to auction them rather than fixed-price.PS:
Note that the longer one started out as a vintage Handy & Harman slab (with their mark on it).
Such things are not usually available, especially multiples in the same size & weight..

I personally do not like zinc cents. So any Lincoln strikes I do (whatever they are) will likely be bronze.

The "1933" Quarter Eagle is on the list to do (eventually).
I've already done "2009-S VDB" over-strikes.
Due to 2025 being the last year for circulating Lincoln Cents, I think i will focus on "2026" over-strikes.
But I am still deciding..
