<p>[QUOTE="Mac McDonald, post: 7820426, member: 117420"]To each their own, but think some are asking/looking for too much. Nothing but NOTHING will ever be the same/exact as the original...not this, not a corvette remake even if by the same or "better" maker using the same or "better" parts (ALL have changed...nothing is the same). And yes, this indeed is a commemorative...a replica...based on/after the one and only original...not a circulating clone/issue. It...anything, really, after so many years...is impossible to duplicate...too much has changed, including time passed. The intent was to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the last Morgan...arguably (one of) the greatest, most handsome, popular and collected coins ever produced...and that of the first Peace dollar...the only true high relief issue and similar in its own right/place in numismatic history, plus capitalize on today's silver trends (.999 v .900). It was not to try and duplicate in every detail, the Morgan and Peace dollars of 1921. I would love to have one of each...and specifically to show, display and enjoy side by side...it diminishes nothing for me...but rather only enhances the originals, as it should be.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
