Christmas gift

 

This completes a Peace date set.

 

Is that a beauty mark on Liberty's cheek?

 

Yep. A mole. Actually a bit of carbon.

 

I only have one. Its not as nice as these already posted but I've had her a few years and enjoy looking at and feeling the weight of it.
1923 S

 

Here's one I cherry picked an 1923 D Peace Vam 1-C an R-6 The coin to me is in a mid to late die state, the strike is slightly off center. The die crack starts at the rim just north east of the "Y" . The crack travels around the field of the coin and touches the tip of Liberty's hair, down to the V in trust. it picks up again at the west top of the "T" and travels through the base of her neck to the top of the 1. Travels north west through the mid section of the "N". And finally ends and the "L". On the reverse there's a section of pre cuds or flip over medal that runs from the tip of the eagles wing feather up to the "U" in United. There is also some minor doubling shown on Liberty's tiara.

 

1925 S 64

 

1928 S 64( one of my favs)

 

I got one more 1923 D that for the life of me I can't get a fix on the vam. Very similar to the other 1 C but two different die breaks one in the "Y" ,the other running from the L in Liberty to the "R" through her head. There one more that splits at the base of her neck and part runs through the 9.

 

Yes they are a Cool Coin,much luck with acquiring the 1921 & 1928 and now that it seems you have the bug,you might as well delve into The Morgans. Another interesting way to go is The US Mint Sets from 1955 to present,anything before 1960 is pretty expensive but after to present is basically affordable and would build a good base for a collection. Have Fun & Good Luck...

 

Peace dollars are addictive. My wallet can testify to that

 

A few of my latest acquisitions... My registry set is 3 coins away from completion - and hopefully a nice Top 20 Spot by the end of the year!

I still think the 24-S belongs in a 65 holder, and I may break it out and tempt fate after I complete the set. My photography never does any coins any justice, but this one is about flawless and a very strong strike on both obverse and reverse.

@Brett_in_Sacto, good luck on your registry set. I have 12 left to complete the set. I'm hoping to put a dent in that this year.

 

Thank you!
