I don't like it. Toning is blotchy and looks unnatural, especially for a Peace dollar.
2nd one. Better luster.
You should have made sure it wasn't a "no D" first.
AU58 or 64RB.
If you're going to Long Beach, visit James Sego (JMS Coins). He's the industry go-to-guy for Ikes and a good guy to deal with. If you tell him I...
It just dawned on me that the 1955-82 commem hiatus was shorter in length than the modern commem "low-atus." A big difference in the design...
That's a little better. I could go 64 or 65.
If I were looking for a $200 Ike for a type set, I'd get a 40% 1973-S in MS68. There are enough that it won't be too hard to find one you really...

Nice set of coins!

I would prefer to look at a bunch of coins in person and pick the nicest one. If you go sight-unseen and take "whatever" from somewhere, I'd...
Saving the biggest one for last flies in the face of the occasional "buy the keys first" advice I hear, but I see a couple advantages in waiting....
There's currently almost no premium for Saints up to MS64, and MS65 is not much more than those. There are plenty out there in both grades for...
Not to hijack the thread, but there was a discussion elsewhere about which forum had the best software. This one came up and I figured I'd take a...
F15. The vertical hairlines on the obverse may be cleaning, and they may be an artifact of the fact that you have a single light at a fairly low...
Separate names with a comma.
