I was trying to keep that series a secret. I don't want too much competition when I bid on them Those are two great looking coins.
I agree. It has become difficult to win nice looking coins lately. I just missed an MS66+ 1925 last month. That would have been a nice addition to my set.
Thanks guys! Good looking Peace Dollars have become more difficult to find, especially at decent prices. I promise these will be the last Peace pictures I post. I don't want to hijack the thread with Peace Dollars. I just can't help myself!
It's too bad how USA-centric this thread is. In terms of artistry the USA coinage lags behind, and is only getting worse. I don't have any to share, but there are some ancient coins with designs that are just jaw dropping beautiful. There are hundreds of world coin designs from the 19th and 20th centuries that overshadow USA designs of the same time. All just my opinions of course...
