Message:: [QUOTE="mralexanderb, post: 424822, member: 7851"]Peace dollars are a hard coin to grade!!! Nice coin and key date as well.  I had plenty of problems trying to buy a MS 1921 Peace $. They are so hard to grade in the AU/BU grade level due to the weak strikes of most of the coins in that series. I tried twice on ebay but had to return them both, as the pictures were way better than the actual coin. In other words, photoshopped. It was such a disappointment to have to return the coins and lose the shipping and NOT get the coin I thought was buying, twice.  The third time I bought a MS64 1921 Peace $ was from a "reputable coin dealer" at a local show. That coin turn out to be an AU coin that he was passing off as an MS 64 coin. It was a beauty, but other coin dealers at the same show said it was AU. I got my money refunded and purchesed another 1921 AU from a more honest dealer at the same show, for less than 1/2 the price of the coin I returned. Here's what I bought:  I have the 1928 and the 1935 left to complete my set. I've been holding out because the '35 will be easy enough but the '28 will be the killer coin to get in MS. Good luck with your Peace $s.:thumb: Bruce[/QUOTE]
