    He’s really upping his game and the photos don’t do it justice, beautiful with excellent struck up detail:

    What was the inspiration for DC creating a 1943 S Peace Dollar? Seems like an odd year to me.

    He explained it but by recall it was a customer order & he then struck a few more which a few of us purchased. LOL. Well, it looks better IMHO than the mint dollar issues of 2021 and 2023...

    Very nice indeed. I bought the 2023 Peace and comparing it to your pictures, your 1943 looks much better. Any chance someone messed with it? It's hard to believe that a coin from 1943 would look so good that my mouth is watering.
    Thanks for taking the time to show it to us.

    Ah well this coin is struck by Daniel Carr (Moonlightmint) and he strikes off dates with his own coin press from the Denver Mint. He overstrikes actual Peace dollars from the 1922-1935 period with coins such as this. So they are not actual US mint coin surfaces but struck on actual US minted coins.
    Check his website out; I will say his quality just keeps improving..

    I'll stick with pre 1935.

    Yes, those are nice indeed. I would say that his work is really quite good and perhaps surpassing the originals but all are good. Most certainly, to each their own.
