The most cultured coin in the world

cMillz · April 1, 2010 3:54AM

My 1934 Peace Dollar is the most cultured coin in the world; unless their is someone who would like to contest that statement. I'd gladly take them on in a culture contest. My great grandfather was an archeologist and avid traveler and got the coin from an American traveler in London during the London Blitz of WWII in 1941. After the war it traveled wherever my great grandfather went to Afghanistan, Uganda, Argentina, the Bahamas, Belize, The Congo, Czechoslovakian before it became the Czech Republic, Pakistan, Croatia, Japan, Jamaica, Lithuania, Mexico, Morocco, and Costa Rica, Chile, Brazil, Australia, China, Japan, and Norway. The coin was then given to my grandfather who was an ambassador for the UN, and has been to over 30 countries. If anyone wants to be the most cultured coin collector in the world and is jealous of this pristine coin look here to buy this thang, or if they have a coin they think is cultured enough to talk about on this post please reply and I'd be glad to argue with you.

Sounds like you might be trying to promote your auction. If it's that important, then don't sell it.

(PS: "Cultured" is not used correctly.)

Do you have any documents to prove the coins travels such as pictures of passport stamps with the coin next to the stamp or are we to just take your word for it?

it sounds like your great-grandfather and grandfather traveled a lot.

Ummm, welcome to the board? Welcome to Ebay? Great first post? Was this first or the same one you put on BST? Either way, great first post?

<< <i>The coin was issued as a circulating coin, and is very valuable uncirculated, with prices ranging up to $20,000.00 for the rarest versions of the coin. >>

The 34D in your auction goes for 80,000 in 67

If all that you are saying is true, why would you want to sell it? It should be obviously be more valuable to you then someone else.

Heck, the shoes I'm wearing now started its life in China and has travelled to about 25 U.S. states not to mention the nations of Canada, Mexico, The Bahamas, Ireland, UK, Spain, Italy and The Holy See. Are they worth more now than when they were new? I doubt it.

If there is travel documentation for the coin then the story would be more credible. If no records exist then it's just any other 1934-D Peace dollar, and the PCGS graded MS65 coin I have on hand is far superior.

Unless the coin is actually cultured.

But at least you get a free coin out of it.

So which gentleman is your grandpop?

Which female ambassador was "granddad?"

(Maybe too much spam causes sex change ?)

[ George H W Bush 1971-73.... definitely not him - Well, hold on, now.... There was that period from 1982-1990 when nobody knew where he was. A secret family down at the ranch? Gave the kiddies silver dollars to practice their shootin' aim? ]
