[QUOTE="CamaroDMD, post: 2605852, member: 5233"]I have often wondered what the collectible status of the 1964-D Peace Dollar would be had they been released for circulation. Here are my thoughts on it...what do you think? First off, the planned mintage was to be 45 million...but only 316,076 were struck. Assuming they halted production at that point and just released them it would have been the lowest mintage of the series. It also would have been the lowest minted 1964 dated coin. With the ending of 90% silver coinage with coins dated 1964 and the presumed novelty of a new silver dollar...one would have thought that a large number would have been saved in high grade. So, despite the low mintage...a large percentage would probably survive. In my opinion, the coin would be popular amongst collectors due to it being the "final silver dollar" and part of the popular Peace design. Had the full 45 million been minted, I think it would be regarded much like the 1921 Morgans. However, with a mintage of only 316,076...it would probably have quite the collector following. But withe likelihood of so many being saved, I doubt it would command extremely high prices due to the number saved. Your thoughts?[/QUOTE]
