<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Inquisitive, post: 1095027, member: 20698&quot;]I recently won this 1921 Peace dollar on Teletrade (picture is from Teletrade, with permission). Graded AU50 by NGC, the winning bid was 111$ plus 5$ shipping (no reserve auction).</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>[ATTACH]109392.vB[/ATTACH]</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I think it was an interesting buy on my part. It is in no way a &quot;clean&quot; coin (as I knew already), but I liked it anyway. 1921 Peace dollars are very hard to get a good strike, even in the (graded) MS63 coins that I have seen in person, the hair lines clearly visible on my 22&#039;s &amp; 23&#039;s were missing.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Furthermore, a low grade 1921 peace dollar would have cost me at least 100$ (greysheet bid for a VG coin) as the curve is very flat, so I would rather get the higher grade dirtier coin (plus it can go into my registry) than the lower grade &quot;clean&quot; coin. I am happy with the purchase and would like to see what it looks like in hand.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Your thoughts are welcome; this was my thought process, and I would love to know what my fellow collectors think about it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
