Meltdown

<< <i>"Toning is not uncommon and is light to heavy golden. Note that I am of the very strong opinion that any 1921 Peace dollar...indeed any Peace dollar...that has any rainbow colors (blue, red, green, etc) is absolutely artificially toned." >>
Interesting comment by Mr. Hall regarding the 1921 Peace dollar series...

Mine fits the description perfectly.
Edited to delete non 1921 examples
my photo's have killed the visible luster on this example in my type set.
Still, I have seen some really natural looking & colorful Peace dollars like Goldbully's above.

Beautiful coins everyone. Simply beautiful!!!!
Morgan dollars had several recorded instances of water damage causing bags to rot which the coins were stored in mint vault cages – surrounded by iron. Millions of coins were affected. There are many multi-color Morgans. For Peace dollars, there are no recorded incidents like this. There are very few multi-colored Peace dollars. Peace coins simply get yellow, golden then darker in most cases.

Thank you. It is a Vam-1G, which means the coin was struck by a Matte Proof Obverse Die, but the reverse was struck by dies other than a matte proof die. PCGS MS64

which one has the "best strike"
I am thinking its Stuarts last example.

and a 1927-P. (The blue/cyan in Liberty's rays is from mixing two light sources of different color temperatures.)
I was already overpaying for it and didnt think id get beat so I put in the minimum bid. Then had to track down Tomaska and offer moon money. He took my first offer so I guess I made out ok:

But, you are right, Lcoopie, Stuart's "strong strike" and Satin Proof example are superlative!
