    Haven't seen a thread yet on this. It went on sale today at noon ET. I picked one up, but I think I might stop with these Morgan/Peace anniversary coins after this year.
    In 2021 it was very cool; in 2023 I figured I'd pick up both year sets; in 2024 I've bought them all since I feel obligated to now... and that's killing some of the fun.
    But anyway, looking forward to receiving my last two 2024 Morgan/Peace anniversary coins.

    Well, this isn't like the 1794 Dollar silver medals... but what seemed to be a limited thing is turning out to be a yearly thing. And I think you can subscribe to the 2025 coins already, though I'm not sure.

    I have a complete set of Silver Dollars from before 1900 to about 2020 when I quit. The mint is getting out of control and very greedy. They have too many variations to each coin from each mint. I can budget the funds but can't keep track even with the auto-reminders. But, like I said, too greedy.

    I am maintaining my subscription for these dollars. Not sure why everyone is upset that the mint keeps minting coins that have strong demand. Are they overpriced, sure. To each their own. I don't understand why folks buy all the different versions of ASEs or proof sets.

    I don't understand the hate they get either. I've read posts where people are mad because it's the same thing every year. I'm just scratching my head because isn't that how coin collecting kind of works? I think too many are getting caught up in the investing aspect of these things. I feel that these coins are way more interesting than the Type 2 ASEs and generic proof sets in my opinion (I'm sorry but I'm not a fan at all of our circulating coinage designs). It's a nice easy series to collect of desirable vintage designs.

    I kind of wish they would bring back some vintage Liberty gold designs (whether it be half eagles, eagles, or double eagles) in the same fashion. It would be awesome to get a flawless proof and to even see a reverse proof of those designs.

    Well…. Back when I started collecting we hadn’t seen anything new for years. So when the Bicentennial coins came out it was exciting. It’s sort of hard to get excited about something new every few months…. From where I sit it feels like the US mint hit a home run with the state quarters and have just worn us out since…. I know it’s just an opinion like everyone else’s. I wouldn’t say I’m a hater. Just a bit worn out.

    I bought the 2023 RP set because it was what we all had been wanting and they came out with it. I didn't buy this years. Just don't feel the need to invest in every set of these now that I got a set to look at.

    Well I'm not a hater, I'm in for 6 coins a year so far(see below). But I didn't know I'd have to buy these in perpetuity if I wanted them all.

    Another fun question - are these a continuation of the original series? Sort of similar to including the 1921 Morgans. Curious what thoughts are on that.

    I'm not a collector of the commemorative coins (yet), but I am a fan of the plastic slab holder boxes I use for my graded Morgan Dollars. I'm up to 7 of them so far and needing to order more of them soon. (yikes)

    I understood them making a replica coin in 2021 on the 100th Anniversary of the final Morgan Silver Dollar and then tying it to the future Peace Dollar....but why did they then do it again in future years ?

    The 2009 UHR Saint....the 2019-S ASE Reverse Proof....this Flowing Dollar Silver/Gold coin....all 1-year products.

    Why keep making new Morgans and Peace's ?

    My Peace Dollar has a small piece of fuzz or something on it. Should I open it up and hope it falls off?

    Yeah, go ahead. I've opened up quite a few of these for the sake of grading. Just do it low over a padded surface. Use a thumb nail and work your way around the capsule a few times easing it up. It'll work it's way up until it's out far enough you can safely set it down and pull the two sides apart. Use a turkey baster or similar to puff air at it and blow the fuzz off. This is common on mint products these days. NGC will typically use clean compressed air to clean off coins before encapsulation. The US mint does not.
