(You know, the one where the 8 in the date is missing its left half, and looks more like a 3?)
Collector since 1976. On the CU forums here since 2001.
Still looking....
Also how can you find any Peace Dollars without any marks in the face or the fields in front of the face (meaning bagmarks?) in AU-50 to the lower mint state grades? Do they exist?
Also is any toning considered less desirable in this case?
Just trying to learn,
Thanks.
Edited to add: As oreville said, it is very difficult to find what you are looking for.. The way you want the coin would almost mean it is going to be high grade, with no marks, etc. in the fields and cheek. When you are going to find an AU or low MS grade coin there is bound to be some marks on the coin, otherwise it wouldn't be that grade.
<< <i> No toning, specs or yellow patina >>
My question: What is "specs?"
I am really stumped on this one.
Also a second question: No marks to the naked eye or with a glass?
Possibly a link to a picture of your AU-58 might be instructive?

Great choice to collect/invest/"stash away." The 21 and 28 are my favorites in this series. If I weren't so addicted with the 94-P and 93-CC Morgans, I'd join you, although I'd stop at MS63. Good luck and give us a score card on your progress
After several months of looking and upgrading at all grades at 64 and under, I've come to the conclusion that this will be almost impossible to complete. I thought I could do it before Xmas but it looks like it will take me several years to do it. The problem is that I'm very picky about what I buy. It has to be blast white and clean even with no light and the 28's are notoriously off/dull white or yellow.
I have about 17 in all different grades that are truely remarkable (PCGS/NGC) after about 5 months of searching at EVERY show/Ebay and the like.......
If you go to all of the major coin web sites and type in peace dollars.... EVERY Peace dollar date comes up but the 28'...... if they finally get one in... it's garbage and it gets bought within 2 days.....?
So the hunt continues.....
I made it myself by smelting my own silver, mixing in the 10% copper, producing a die, and striking the planchet!
Seriously, I bought her last year raw from Wade Moore, a famous dealer who refuses to do anything on the web. He usually just does shows. I sent her in myself to be graded -- elcheapo economy submission -- about six weeks door-to-door time. I was expecting AU55, and was shocked to get MS62. I'll take it! I think I lucked out on this one. After all was said and done, I probably doubled my money on her. That was not my intention, but I was just lucky.

Can you post a few of your blast white ones here, so that we can drool over them?
I'll try to put some pics up tonight.
Thank you very much for your time

I have an MS61 for sale that I bought from a board member. I think it is PQ with light yellow toning. Let me know if you're interested.
