Most curious indeed.......both have a production limit of 275,000. I didn't notice anything frenzified on the mint site yesterday.
Side Note: Got a message from Dan Carr the other day... He may be doing one more run of 22 morgans in a couple weeks (due to numerous requests). I've already put myself on the list for one or 2 more to go with the CC
25 coin limit per household. They were probably all snapped up quickly by people looking to flip them.
I have nothing to base this on, but it appears the mint may have adopted a just-in-time manufacturing approach, where they manufacture small batches and refill the pipeline as needed. Probably got burned too many times minting a bazillion pieces and then melting 3/4 of them ... pure speculation on my part.
It's a rush to see who can get the MS70 grade to turn a profit. That's why with a lot of these mint issues that don't make the grade you can pick up ms-69s close to issue price. There are already dozens of MS70 presales that have been paid for on eBay.
it makes me wonder if some people SEEK OUT the MS-69's due to the price.I know I did with the 2009 High Relief St Gaudens.
I just got charged for the U.S. Navy One-Ounce Silver Medal just this morning. And I'm subscribed for the Peace Silver Dollar Proof Coin Enrollment (NJ), and Morgan and Peace Dollar 2023 Two-Coin Reverse Proof Set Enrollment (NL) I don't really like the Morgan design but I'll get it in the Peace Dollar set just in case the Peace Dollar has some variation.
May I ask y’all about these @Morgandude11 and @Collecting Nut? My friend found her grandfather’s coins. Needless to say, for me I enjoy looking through them all. Many denominations to look through but what do y’all think of these?
I agree. They are honestly circulated common Morgan dates. They have no significant monetary value beyond the Silver content, but they are nice collector circulated Morgans.
The only one I want is the proof peace dollar for my proof 20th century type set. (surprise, can't afford a proof 1921 or 22 high relief.)
