<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lehigh96, post: 410989, member: 15309&quot;]I don&#039;t like this coin at all.&nbsp; The toning is dark and the colors and pattern are very suspect.&nbsp; Additionally, the overall grade is at the bottom of the collectible range for a common date Peace Dollar.&nbsp; I know that you are looking for a nicely toned Peace Dollar and probably don&#039;t want to pay the prices on Island&#039;s Website, but I think you will be disappointed with this coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have purchased coins from this seller before and although I don&#039;t think he is a bad seller, he definitely has AT coins in his inventory and his photo&#039;s do not always accurately represent the appearance of the coin.&nbsp; Below is a photo of one of my purchases.&nbsp; The left photo is his and the right photo is mine.&nbsp; The coin looks like my photo.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o59/ACPitBoss/Franklin%20Half%20Dollars/FranklinHalfDollar1958NGCMS65Obv-1.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>As far as the apparent scratches on the left field of the obverse.&nbsp; I definitely think they are on the coin, but also believe they were caused by the die and don&#039;t affect the grade much.&nbsp; Here is a photo of a Jefferson Nickel that I own with similar lines in the right obverse field.&nbsp; The coin is graded MS67</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o59/ACPitBoss/Jefferson%20Nickels/JeffersonNickel1945-SNGCMS67503472-.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>This coin looks like a good deal, an affordable rainbow toned Peace Dollar.&nbsp; However, I don&#039;t think they really exist.&nbsp; Any attractively rainbow toned Peace Dollar will not be affordable, they will all be expensive, and rightly so.&nbsp; My guess is that this coin is probably not even as nice as the photos suggest, and IMO they make it look ugly.&nbsp; My advice is to pass and wait for a more eye appealing example with a little bit higher price tag.&nbsp; I think you can get a nicely toned Peace MS64 for $250.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
