Peace Dollars are one of my favorites. And I indeed suck when it comes to grading them, so, '64....weak strike, but a beauty non-the-less.

 

66

 

Even after this thread a few weeks back you are going to guess that NGC limited the grade to MS64 for weak strike.

I know, I know....can't help myself.

 

I bet they gave it a 65, maybe better.

 

Well I'm new to this forum and I decided to jump in on this one. I think it looks MS65. Very clean looking but the weak strike will knock it a notch besides some small nics . Nice Peace Dollar btw.

 

Welcome there BSS....

 

I'll say 65'. That mark on the eagles neck is noticeable but other than that it looks pretty nice.

 

I'm going to say MS66. The coin is very clean and appears to have booming luster. I know that NGC doesn't seem to care about a weak strike if the coin has a lot of eye appeal...and this one certainly does. So, I'll say they went with MS66.

 

Bobby,

Welcome to cointalk. I see more and more NGC forum members posting on this board everyday.

Thanks Paul. I actually just seen you post this forum at NGC and decided to check it out!

 

You slabby's always stick together....

 

I think we might have to give MikeFL(NGC)=Leadfoot(Cointalk) some credit for that one as well.

 

Which 1924 do you guys like better since now I own both. The auction ended a few minutes ago.




Guess I am going to have to wait until I get this one to decide

 

Bottom one is a little mushy from the photos....I say top one.

 

I like the top one better, Lehigh. I have to go with MS-65. The marks (especially the one on the eagle's neck) and the strike prevent it from grading 66. But with the toning and luster I wouldn't doubt NGC slabbed it as a 66.

 

I like them both. The bottom one looks to be over-exposed a little and may look better in-hand.

 

They both look great, but I like the gold tone of the first. Those are two nice coins! :thumb:

 

Looks at least 66 to me, and I prefer the first coin.
