    I have a silver American Eagle back when the premium wasn't too high. Now the premium is too high.

    I was able to get 2 of the 2022 West Point Unc eagles. Nice coins.

    High premium or no premium
    I like them.
    Think of it this way and you won't mind the premium.

    Yes and no...sort of. The AW initials of the original designer...an A over/inside a W and which looks forever too much like a W at first glance every time, plus centered perfectly under the motto where the mint mark should have been placed. So it's not completely a "non W one."

    It was only the third time that I wanted a "special" mint product.

    I spent a small fortune trying to figure what was the B*S* about a 1921 "deep relief" Peace Dollar.

    Even the one I finally decided was someones' idea of limited perfection relative to my "Gem" 1907 "deep/high relief" coin, was very disappointing.

    Regardless of what it cost, I had to have all 6 coins, to view "proper detail".

    They didn't need to be some special grade, just designed/struck as was desired by a president who wanted all details completely "Identifiable".

    What was the problem, as coins struck with primitive tools had accomplished relative perfection, except symmetry.

    I believe the set had accomplished relative perfection, regardless of their grade.

    JMHO

    Btw @1stSgt22 I am sorry this thread has turned out to be a commentary on the design. Personally I am very happy you got a coin you desired, and am glad for the pleasure the coin will give you.

    I know we like to rag on the mint, but that is the price of a meal at a decent restaurant for two nowadays. I would rather have the coin than that.

    Glad you got what you wanted and makes your collection better. :)
