    GDJMSP,

    I'm still waiting for a reply....:scratch:

    I am waiting with baited breath to read the article you cited reference the author that says he was working at the Mint when the 1964-D Peace dollars were minted and swears that none left the Mint. After all the coins were melted in 1965 (two weeks after production) I still have to wonder how two of them (1964-D Peace dollars) mysteriously were returned to the mint from Washington five years later especially since none of them “left the building’ :rolleyes:

    You are correct, I probably wouldn’t believe the article anyway since it has been documented that at least two 1964-D Peace dollars did leave the building and were not returned for several years. If the author was wrong on this point, none ever leaving the building, I must wonder what else he wrote that is all so fiction. The big question is, do you believe the article that you are citing? :eek:

    Getting back to the original point we started to debate, I’m still waiting to hear some more words of wisdom from one of my elders on why I’m wrong about if these coins were monetized or not. :devil:

    I told you I could give you the article, I did not say I could post it here. If you want a copy then send me a PM with your email address and I'll send it to you.

    As for anything else, I usually do not waste my time trying to convince someone who cannot be convinced. Like I said, you go ahead and believe what you want to believe.

    Part of the definition of monetize is 'to establish as legal tender'. The government never established these pieces as legal tender. The coins were never monetized.

    Well, in the words of "the Captain":

    Those two were trial strikes struck in Philadelphia before the dies were shipped, they were documented in Roger's research and were never in Denver. They were not part of the production run.

    The document I am talking about is far from being secret, it was written by Michael P. Lantz and originally published in Coin World in 1996, and again a few years ago.

    It is copyrighted material, that is why it cannot be posted here.

    That dog just won't hunt! :devil:

    You will notice in the video linked in my previous post that Mr. Lantz states that a few were sent to Washington (from Denver). :rolleyes:

    That is the only type of answer you are going to get, they are not big enough to admit when they are wrong. A couple of posters have stated that the 1964-D Peace dollars weren’t “monetized” or “left the building” but when a logical argument is presented all they are capable of for a come back is to dismiss you or a response like you quoted.

    Sad, very sad….:eek:

    Someone tell me, why is it illegal to own a pattern coin? Does that mean I should melt my gold PF-65 1874 Brickford Eagle ten-dollar gold coin? Or should I also melt my gold 1877 Half Union Fifty Dollar coin? I would never melt it though. There so rare, so unique,, and so beautiful. I rather just hid them.

    Sorry Caleb, but that is not correct. I have already explained to you that the only way a coin can be monetized is if it is issued by the mint. But you prefer to think otherwise and want to argue about it. But facts are facts. Why do you think the mint had to issue a special certificate to monetize the 1 '33 double eagle that is legal to own ? They had to do that because the coin was not issued by the mint, so according to the mint the coin had never been monetized.

    Now like I told you before, you are welcome to believe whatever you want to believe. But I'm not going to argue with you about it because it is pointless to do so.

    So what is false ? I never said anything was false, I merely said that the article contained a good bit more information than that 3 minute video did.

    spock - they, PCGS, put the ad up for advertising. Just like Max Mehl put up an ad for the 1913 nickels. That's all green was saying.
