It's amazing to me how the SF Mint hammered the early date Morgans, but their Peace dollars are generally softly struck.

Did they lose some experienced press operators and had poor training of new workers? This was meant to be a rhetorical question.

 

1925 P NGC MS-64

1923 P ANACS MS-64

1923 P PCGS MS-65



1925 S NGC MS-62

 

Sorry, but I "mustache" you all what you think?! (Of the coin, NOT the lame play on words!!)

 

I think it looks like a big snot ball as opposed to a mustache but whatever. Nice one

 

I agree lol. The 23 S, 25 S, and 28 S at 63 and 64 (pretty much) look the same. Having low luster, a weak strike, and mediocur eye appeal. Sure there are a few exceptions, but I feel this true for the majority. By 1935 the SF mint seemed to have things figured out. The 1935 S is nicest peace dollar BY FAR out of the S series.

 

That is why i like my 1925 S example above. I think it was well struck for that year.

 

I have a nice 64 for every above mentioned year. My favorite, is my 1925 S as well. Mine has a nice orange copperish tone. It's actually one of my favorite peace dollars in my entire collection.

 

Charming, Cascade. Lol. Either way, it's a fine Peace dollar.

 

I've actually struck up a conversation with Roger Burdette about this subject. I'm hoping to get some insights from him. I guess I could re-read his Peace Dollar book, but it's fun learning directly from him. If I get an "aha" moment, I'll certainly share it.

 

Shagged this today at a local coin show.

 

Here are some of mine. I am also working on the Peace Dollar Set in BU. Missing 28, 28 S; 34D & S; and 23D .

 

Seems like everyone is working on the 34s, me included.

 

One day I will post all the Peace Dollar here once I get them out of the box

 

Just got this key in.

 

That would be catchy , The Snot ball VAM .

 

Not I .....I've got 2 lol

 

Greedy!!!!
