Show us your Peace dollar dogs. Is there a SPCPD?

RWB · November 15, 2009 2:28AM

Everyone likes to show off the nice looking coins, but once in a while, it’s good to see the mangy, beat-up dogs of the bunch. Is there a Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Peace Dollars (SPCPD) out there?

If there's not one there sure should be one. Most of the Peace dollars I find would be
blessed to be in that society!

Wow, Greg! The reverse on the first coin is kind of cool. Looks like the Eagle is standing on a rock, underwater... neat damage.

while this example might not suffer the same wear and tear as others posted here, it is low on eye appeal......proving once again that not all toning is attractive

quoting Roger from earlier today in another thread "People routinely give nicknames to objects and other people as a way of making them seem more familiar and as a mnemonic to aid recall. Sometimes these nicknames are obvious attributes of the object/person and sometimes they are so personal and obscure that they escape normal perceptions"

i call this one doo-doo head:

Is there like a prize?

If there is a prize I gotta win. These beauties were orphaned into my care;

What a coincidence.
RWB's initials match this guy that wrote a book about Peace Dollars!!!
Go figure.

having taken some casual interest in peace bux some 8 or so years ago
i would buy the occasional `cool` raw pieces here and there. recently looking and photographing
them, i realized most of what i`d bought was crap! mainly the hairlines from harsh cleanings
that i overlooked or didnt care? so this would be a good thread for to show my dogs but
i hated the pics i was getting so bad i didnt save any of them.

my only best piece is a `23 in a ngc 64 slab
big whoop.

Good nicknames!

Sorry, no prizes except a bit of fun.

There have to be worse Peace dollars than the "lovelies" posted so far....
