[QUOTE="BigsWick, post: 300229, member: 3534"]What's your opinion of them? Like 'em? Hate 'em? Ambivilent? I've got to admit that the recent uptick in precious metal prices has renewed my interest in what is on the horizon for silver and gold. The Peace dollar, in many respects (numismatic considerations notwithstanding), seems like a bargain at today's values. Call me crazy, but I've always thought the Peace dollar was an attractive coin. I know it plays a distant second fiddle to the Morgan, but common dates hardly seem worth 60% or so of comparable common Morgan dollars. I guess this is on my mind because I recently acquired a nice roll of 1922s for under $300, all MS-60/61/62 coins. Speculators might advise against buying Peace dollars and recommend investing in something like the ASE if one is betting on precious metal prices going up. However, I like to "split" my risk by keeping potential numisatic benefits in mind. I can't help but believe that the Peace dollar will some day become a more desirable coin. Any thoughts? Thanks![/QUOTE]
