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.
What's in a name? General Motors, GE, Cartrashion, Nathan Hale, George Rogers Clark, Ted Binion. You decide........
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.
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). ..
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 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.
