    @Kentucky 's daughter opted for a different prize lot, so this is what they're getting. A lot of folks have been after this lot for a while. It's finally going to a new home. I'll post an update when it has been shipped.

    Giveaway Lot #250907-11

    (LOT: 2 coins) United States: pair of silver dollars (1921-S Morgan type and 1935 Peace type)

    A pair of US silver dollars, each from the final year of their respective types.

    Coin #1 of 2: The 1921-S Morgan dollar is in high grade but has some darkish, mottled toning.

    Coin #2 of 2: The 1935 Peace dollar is quite well-worn and low grade, as though it was somebody’s pocket piece for a while.

    Neither of these is an outstanding example, but this giveaway lot does include TWO silver dollars, so you’ve got a good bit of silver here.

    This giveaway lot was donated by my sister, Elizabeth Shamblin, from North Carolina.

    Sorry for the delay, but CT wouldn't accept my login!? Thank you for the coins

    Since these were going to a non-collector, I decided to experiment. This is less than a 1 second dip...I washed my hands, dipped the coins, rubbed both sides with my fingers and then thoroughly rinsed and dried.

    The Morgan came out pretty good, but the Peace faded more...

    Thanks for sharing that. Despite my moderator status making me the point of contact for several locked out folks, I was unaware of that particular workaround.

    And despite moderator status, I am powerless to do anything with user registration and login issues like that. That’s “above our pay grade” and is solely within the realm of the admins.
