    Just came from a coin show, and happened to snag this coin as my Christmas gift. Peace dollars are my favourite coin type from the USA, I have couple of raw ones, and saw this listed for a reasonable price. This is my first graded coin, I looked up the cert number for pictures, but they didn't have one, so I took one myself, which I found hard due to the plastic.

    So frosty!

    Please share your peace dollars or your first graded coins.

    Common, but nice. Looks to be sharply struck with decent luster. They are indeed lovely coins.

    I rely on professional photography (either PCGS TrueView or NGC Photovision), so when I'm faced with a coin like this one, which doesn't have such images, and I have to be the one to photograph it myself (through the plastic), the resulting images aren't so great. These cellphone shots came out imperfectly focused but at least they showed the cartwheel luster on this coin, which was a real lusterbomb, albeit also quite common.

    It’s a beautiful coin and a 1923 is a common date. Congratulations on a wonderful Christmas present.

    You did a great job on that photo. And, very nice coin. I have a complete set of Peace dollars, but none are slabbed. If fact, I don't have slabbed coins except for a few Jefferson's that were given to me in trade.

    This was my first graded coin. Still have it though the ply-stuff pouch hasn't weathered the years very well.

    Beautiful coin Green, although you could triple your value with a grade. Peace to you Green.
