Fantasy Coin for Bonus Day 50
( again, thanks everyone for your contributions )

1964 D Daniel Carr Peace "Dollar" overstrike.
OKAY, It isn't really a US coin so I will say today it is a "Fantasy coin".

die Pair 6 High Grade Finish
Specially handled and consistent with MS68 grade, most were bulk handled.
Total minted with all die pairs and in all grades is 1,964 from what I understand.
Any marks are on the capsule.


I was lucky to get it directly from D. Carr when it was released at the original price. It is my only Carr piece to date.

Oh and Ralph Cramden gave some of these to Alice when he finally did send her to the moon.

and here is the tiniest item I have in my collection.
1865 Mexico Maximiliano gold wedding token or fantasy coin used in a tradition for Spanish weddings.
Probably 8 kt gold and quite numerous in different compositions and quality. Some are very crude, this is a nicer example of all the fairly inexpensive types.

Thank you for the Bonus Day, TNG!

If I had any of the silvers or later proofs, the mintages would be lower. Still, not too shabby compared to my real coins.

Zombucks

I have two copper proofs. Both have a mintage of 10,000.

The Walker:

The Morgue Anne:

The reverse is the same for both (and all):

What the heck, this should have been posted with tokens but is most certainly my lowest mintage anything! It deserves a post here.

Official CCF Token
Mintage: 127 (I think that's correct)
