    This isn’t really a peace dollar nor a 1921, but maybe we can pretend it is?

    Dan Carr overstrike on a Peace dollar with the original reverse design of a broken sword.

    It was the only way I was going to get a quality high-relief example of the dollar.

    I reckon we can count that as a “1921” Peace dollar. Looks great in ShimmerVision™, BTW. The coin I’m posting below could’ve benefited from your same magic.


    So 1921 or Peace dollar to me. I’ll play from 1921. That makes it 1921 or Philippines to the next player.

    Originally graded by NGC (bought raw however) only graded MS62 (my uneducated self called it MS65 when I first sent it to NGC) but it’s one of the first coins I had sent for grading so while it’s not very valuable it’s rather special.

    Edit: Oops, I was playing from 1897 but @oih82w8 snuck in above me. Proceed… 1878 or Morgan dollar…

    My current type coin, so I’m sure it’s been posted before, and probably not so long ago. But it’s just like that with my stories- once you’ve known me long enough, I tend to repeat myself.


    That, and because I’m a Type collector and not a Morganite, I haven’t got a huge pool of Morgan dollars to draw from.

    1739 or Switzerland, next. (If that gets us stuck, I’ll play a more modern Swiss coin to make it easier for the Litesiders to respond).


    Swiss Cantons (Zürich): 1739 silver "city view" 1/2-thaler (1 gulden of 36 schillings)



    Hard to see in the photos, but the date is in that little cartouche at the bottom of the reverse (city view) side.

    That’s super-sharp example for a 7070 coin, @Bikingnut - you must have a nice type set.
