That's a great article. I think the Peace dollar is vastly underrated. While it takes a bit more work than for Morgans, it's quite possible to...
Lots of good points in this thread. I'm especially reassured now that I've heard from a few long-time collectors that the average age of...
I wonder why they went with full face view portraits for a couple of those (Lincoln, Taylor). I don't think those ever turn out very well on...
