<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dcarr, post: 2700424, member: 4781&quot;]To my knowledge, no Denver Mint employee has ever come forward stating that they actually purchased 1964 Peace Dollars and/or were subsequently asked to return them.</p><p><br /></p><p>I personally do not believe that story. Denver Mint employees were allowed to purchase the new 1964-D Kennedy Half Dollars, but never the 1964 Peace Dollars.</p><p><br /></p><p>The date on your specimen appears to be somewhat crudely formed, unlike genuine US Mint coins from that era. Here is a non-silver Chinese piece that is less than about 10 years old. It has a similar crudeness to the date digits, although the sizes and shapes are a bit different on yours:</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/d1kAAOSwvzRX1NvU/s-l1600.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Here is one that matches yours exactly:</p><p><img src="http://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/A00AAOSw2xRYR0SN/s-l1600.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>The coin above is one of several exactly like it being offered on eBay at present.</p><p><br /></p><p>So no, you did not find your &quot;1964&quot; Peace 30 years ago. You just recently acquired it because it is a recent Chinese manufacture.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
