    I never know, is it shill deal or is it real deal ?

    So far beyond the norm this is a way way out I wonder if maybe to influence future hoarded up inventory resales? At 10k made item now once hammer at $1500 is the illusion or its a $1500 "VALUE BASED ON ONE SEEMINGLY Legitimate RE SALE" Suddenly a overproduced 229 fantasy is worth $1500 to everyone DUE TO ONE PUBLIC RESALE.

    I endured the hours of endless MM as seen on TV sales pump and dumps for the 1776~2026 ASE $ salespitches and he's got alot (100) monster boxes worth of Carr commisioned art to resell. for 5x to 20x spot. One goofy resale should not make a market. If they cannot sell them at $229, why are they now worth $1500+ ?

    Be informed, buy smart. Somethings fishy.

    Then,

    less than a day later,

    I have my first as seen on tv minuteman paid for:

    Minuteman Arrived via the fleabay today

    Certified in tiny text as "NOT LEGAL TENDER"

    No mention of this being TOKEN or FANTASY on ANACS Encapulation.

    No mention of Daniel Carr on this slab.

    Final Mintage issue #1 of 5 is 9,743, & ALL ANACS MS70 FIRST STRIKE COIN *

    I am not sure why theres a dead end * that leads to no additional info which explains the *

    This ANACS ASE $ Has dual 1776~2026 date and 250th privy which As Seen on TV salesman said was required by Law and for some reason the USMINT failed to produce these in Uncirculated like they did with the 500,000 1776~2026 ASE $ Proof

    Also has DENVER Mint mark on reverse to signify it was struck in Denver on a press Daniel bought from Denver Mint.

    I am happy I got a Minuteman for $286 delivered which was about $50 over launch price without sharing my personal information with various AS SEEN on TV Coin resales venues and online websites too. So I am in at 4x spot silver at the moment.

    Another Minuteman at ebay is open for bids, last I looked it was $730 plus fees thus about 10x spot silver

    I recall TV Guy saying you cannot own them all if you do not own the MINUTEMAN.

    Whatever reason the 9,743 Minuteman ASE $ Issues are incredibly valuable on fleabay resales marketplace.

    Image 4 & 5 are part of two sided Uncirclated 1776~2026 ASE $ COA that arrived with the 125,000 released from USMINT.

    Happy Shopping !

    I have seven coins from this series. They all have the same disclaimer on the reverse label. Yes, mention of Dan would have been nice, but I'm content that Dan's production blog lists them and includes the usual great supplemental details.

    Why seven? So that I have all 5 different reverse dies (A-E), and all 6 obverse dies (Constitution A and B) represented in my Dan Carr / Moonlight mint collection.

    Oddly my sole goodie seems free of the reverse cracked dies or funky wing depression or even host ghosties.

    Sounds like reverse A or B (pre-die crack). They are indistinguishable, per Dan.

    Sometimes I buy items direct & then on second thought I find I need to buy additional Carr Art items 2nd hand. The Silver version is in ICG slab which is a business I had no clue is still encapsulating items in plastic. Whats their guarantee ? No idea, but I like the coin and it appears to be multistruck due to mutliple layering of dentils and no underlying host ghosties on 40% silver versus the stack of clad Ikes I have. I miss Daniel offering items direct, but AS SEEN ON TV seems to be where we are at now in meterorlogical Fall 2026. Mike Mezak or Moonlight Mint ? MM

    Anyone notice Ebay is going to have all $500+ coinage items ship first to 3rd party for authentication ?
    I wonder how exomunia, fantasy, replicas, will do WITH AN ADDITIONAL HANDS ON verification process ?
    I mean for years EBAY has been and are beyond clueless dealing with chinese counterfeits in pcgs counterfeit slabs. And they do not accept plastic fantastics from anyone beyond the Big Two or three. Do they accept ANACS as a verified source ? Does ANACS OFFER A GUARANTEE ? So by definition off label slabs BEYOND BIG TWO Should get immediately tossed in reject mail, right ?

    .
    A bit of a rambling comment, making it hard to answer, but I'll take a stab:

    1) The denticles differences between the o/s on a 40% Ike vs the o/s on a Cu-Ni host Ike are due to stike, but not multistrike. The 40% o/s are broadstruck, causing the irregular denticle appearance. In contrast, the Cu-NI o/s are not broadstruck, resulting in quite normal-appearing denticles.

    2) ICG and ANACS will accept any Moonlight Mint product for grading / holdering (except oversized tokens). PCGS accepts only a very limited few Moonlight mint products for grading and holding - only the few that appear in the U.S. section of "Unusual World Coins, 6th Edition" by Krause Publications. https://www.pcgs.com/tokensandmedals There are a relative paucity of Moonlight Mint items that have appeared in NGC holders.

    That said, the majority of TPG Moonlight Mint items are in ANACS holders. Some in this thread submit to ICG - perhaps due to slightly lower fees and more relaxed grading than ANACS. Personally, I only use ANACS for Moonlight Mint items.

    3) eBay accepts listings of PCGS, NGC, ANACS, and ICG -slabbed items.

    I think ICG should be a bit more clear whether the above-dollar is the copper-nickel vs the 40% silver. I strongly prefer ANACS slabs for my Daniel Carr items.

    Dan is producing the 2026 Glendale Coin Club medal https://youtu.be/Yogo8LOHSq0 , which will include the design elements of the 1826 National Semicentennial Jubilee Medal obverse (see below).

    I'm wondering if Dan might pair this new die with another (non-Glendale Coin Club) die - perhaps even using the original reverse, to produce a new 2026 offering for the rest of us Dan Carr collectors?

    Was my #1 concern on this purchase, but seller had a generous return policy listed & fair out the door price, so I took leap of faith. Sadly, no COA was included, which I hoped would make the journey too even though it was not listed in lot/offer.

    It looks 40% silver to me using my stack of two finish in matte or brilliant clads I bought direct from Daniel that DO look clad. I went a bit overboard on that issue as I existed in a world where clad ikes actually circulated so it was a more appealing fantasy to me. The USMINT could have easily issued the same die Carr re-created instead of IKE obverse which is basis of why I pursue some Carr Art Fantasy Issues. USMINT is far more open to retro coin designs now.

    I have film images from the visit, all packed away. Ron took an image of me and Adam striking 14 stars from a distance. Really cool perspective. Awesome memories. ALSO have my film images at one ANA Seminar, I think Joe's first visit to Summer Seminar. Crowded mayhem. Back when there was one big event, not two sessions/classes.

    When Ron offered his Medallic Arts press for sale at like $2,800 I called him up chatted about it. I loved that press but it was likely couple tons and 7 foot tall. Balls maybe weight 200 times two. Could be disassembled to put in pick up. I worked up to offer $1200 more including delivery. But it was a come & get it offer. Someone bought it for $2800 or less. At the time he was rehoming all his green paint/restored production equiptment. Later his unrestored stuff, musical instruments, engraving van, some dies... That was before he'd gone public with his health realities.

    RIP Ronald Wayne Landis, Joe Rust, & Verne Walrafen.

    Verne was keeper of their history & who was also my shopping nemisis when bidding / buying ebay treasures.
    Cliff and Verne had a rule that who bid 1st got no competition from the other. I did not play by those rules, but was nice to know they had a gentlemans shopping agreement.

    This was back when ebay displayed bidder's handles & email communication between everyone was possible.

    Happy Hump Day !

    Really cool reading about your experiences. Thank you for sharing!

    The seller cited "only 14,000 produced" for the Minuteman privy ASE.
    .
    Actually, the Minuteman privy ASE is the only one of the five that has a final production number, and that is 9,743.
    .
    The others' production numbers are not final:
    Betsy Ross Flag 10,266 through 9/6/2026
    Independence Hall 10,724 through 9/6/2026
    Constitution 9862 through 9/6/2026

    Or, now hear me out, there is something fishy going on with that auction. Because those are nothing special, with 10K produced and sold via TV for $230 each, and are certainly not worth anywhere near $1800.

    If the value is really $1,800 now, yeah, I was off by a million miles. If it's a shill auction, though, I was not off at all.

    It would be more believable if the price was $300 or $350. $1,800 is total fiction. Because I don't believe that anyone with $1,800 to spend on a single after market overstrike lacks the wherewithal to research and understand value.

I found that odd to get no response on $7,000 bin offer. Not all slabbed cheerios have prototype reverse.

    Are these known fake peace bucks supposed to be silver or just chinese faux silver ? Color looks off too.
