    Love them!! I only have 1 Binion, and it is just slabbed "uncirculated. " I would love to have a few MS Binion examples, because the history is really cool. I'm just not interested in paying too crazy of a premium for it. I'm sure that sooner or later I'll run into one or more where the price is right! Mine is a Morgan, but these Peace dollars are cool!

    I honestly don't know how much of a premium they might bring. I bought them for $22 each which is the going price in my town for silver dollars that aren't slicks. I just thought they were cool.

    Here's my Binion hoard coin. The IRS thanks us very much for our patronage.

    Honestly, I don't think a Binion dollar is worth a premium. There were a bunch of them. Problem is a lot of sellers think they should get a premium. I got this off eBay for the price a non-Binion 23 Peace at the grade typically gets in an auction.

    even then (1930's) I can't imagine getting a Flying eagle in change.

    Good job, dad.

    My haul from yesterday's ANA show.

    Would have bought an 1850 Raw Large cent in EF range, but splurging on 1 lady ancient put a damper on the rest of the day, but it was a major upgrade for me so no regrets.

    Always Long Beach, if I chose to go.

    Always wanted a 1921 Peace, so I finally got one.
    What do you think it would grade at (not going to get it graded, just curious).

    Think that might grade 63, provided it hasn't been cleaned. I have a hard time telling from pics.

    Looks AU to me guys. The bird tells the story. Could be lightly polished but I'm not too sure from these pics.

    I have to blame @DysfunctionalVeteran for these. I've always loved Mercs, but never really pursued the idea of doing an AU-BU set until I saw some of his.
    I photographed these (1923, 1926 & 1936-S) but today 3 more came in the mail :p 1937, 1939 & 1940-S....stay tuned.

    Basically all of 'em :) I already have a complete set (minus 16-D) in G-AU, but they don't look nearly as appealing.
    The AU-BU set will be slow....as funds allow, but well worth the effort I reckon!

    I'm slowly working on my ms 67/68 NGC set no FB's. The difficult years will be the 1920's in the upper MS range in the D and S mint marks.
