I agree that seems to be the case. The reverse design just seems to shrug off dings better (more legend / edge dating to blunt impacts, maybe)
This was in someone's silver stash, supposedly stored away since ~1964. I bought it off eBay, and had a stromg suspicion that the ends of the roll...
Based on the OP photo, I'm guessing AU58. Fingers crossed that yours comes back higher. I bought a blind roll of Peace dollars off of eBay and...
I have the first 5 pucks and have picked up a few of the others whenever the design caught my fancy (or when I found them on sale close to spot)....
Entry post - I'm feeling lucky today! Good luck, all!
In 2013, silver was around $25/ ounce. So, about 30% (made worse by insurance/security/storage costs). I haven't looked at Bitcoin prices...

Just found this thread. A 7 year old April Fools prank that just keeps giving. Love it! I've also seen those Bitcoin ATMs in real life. At a gas...

Thank you! Have I mentioned that this board has some of the most amazing people and connections we could *ever* imagine??
Hard to tell grades on those coins without a closeup of the front and back. The 1912 Peso is a surprisingly tough one to find in any grade....
Picked up a 2007 $25 in a MS70 NGC holder. There's a local gold & silver shop that contacts me when they get neat stuff and I usually offer a 5%...
I guess I'll keep bumping this every 2 weeks or so. Hopefully find someone who can help me ID this. Can anyone else tell if there's doubling,...
And pee as silently as you can on the grave.
Do you think any of the hoard will come on the market? Or do you think it'll end up in a museum's holdings instead? Has anyone on the board ever...
