image I do. These are my pic's of the one I picked up from Wayne Herndon. The luster just drip's off this one and has great colors to boot. alot of discussions earlier about PQ. I feel this is a PQ MS64 Peace $1.

    Nice looking coins. I always thought that the Peace dollar had a more attractive design than the Morgan dollar. The liberty on the Morgan dollar always seemed a little too masculine to me.

    I think the Morgan dollar is one of the ugliest coins the Mint ever made. It is also really common and a boring design.

    I really like this peace dollar. It is definitly a PQ 64! Nice buy!image

    There is a good reason why the lady on the Peace dollar looks like a lady. The designer's wife, Teresa Cafarelli (De Francisci) posed for the coin!

    Here's a picture of her.

    the designer had a lock-down on how Liberty's lips looked when you look at the photo! Nice coin, love that rim toning. Peaces really look grade in choice grade.

    I prefer Peace Dollars over Morgans anyday. Circ Peace isn't so good but those Unc's are really nice.

    One day I hope to own a really nice 1921. I might even be willing to spend $10 K on one - but first I need to save up the cash - wouldn't want to get a loan or anything. image

    Looks nice. I've seen worse in 65 holders.

    Peace Dollars remind me of old black & white "Three Stooges" movies.

    Nice coin. Are you going to keep it in that holder? Terrific original toning and sharp lustre.

    Thanks for the kind words guy'simage I like these large coins in the smaller ANACS holder. More coin, less slab. May crack later and send to PCGS? I have several coins in ANACS slabs and their all "Very" nice for the grade. Great Value too. Don't plan on selling them any time soon.

    I like the coin and think it's just fine in an Anacs holder. I like to find circulated Bust halves in Anacs holders as well.
    And I also LOVE to read folks mentioning all the other services do a "Better" job grading.image More Anacs for me!!
