What sort of condition was yours in? Any complaints? I couldn't see any obvious issues from your photos. It is perfect, other than the usual black lint I had to remove from the capsules. |

I received all my coins. Most were loose in the box but still in the capsule.
Nine were flawless under magnification but three had one or two tiny dings not really noticeable to the naked eye.
All and all. I'm pleased.

The Morgan (P) and Peace dollars were delivered today, so I now have all coins ordered. Overall I'm satisfied with the quality of the coins, they are nice though I'm not a fan of the burnished look. I also have to acknowledge I was fortunate to be able to get all six, I know the ordering process was hit or miss and some missed out. So glad I did not have to resort to aftermarket or eaby to find missed items. I did a quick scan on each coin and did not see any noticeable flaws. I'll sit down with the coins and some homebrew this weekend and look closer with a magnifier. If all looks good I will send them to PCGS. |

Does anyone know if multiple dies were used at each mint? If only one set of die were used, how much difference would be expected in quality between the first and last coin produced?

Got my three Morgan P today. One is flawless, two have small dings, one on obverse above date and a ding on reverse between M E. The second coin has the exact same dings, likely struck from same dies. I'm thinking MS69 for the ding ones. Not going to send them in for grading, don't want to. At least it's not major damage.

RPT, Misfit, I am Glad to hear Your coins are Sweet,Nice to See, ENJOY.... PS, hokiestenn, If 175,000-200,000 were made and Approx 5000, are made per Die set, ............JMO.
Along with the Denver, San Francisco, Philly, New Orleans and the Carson City minted coins, The First minted would be an Exceptional Crisp and Outstanding Strike, The Last, in the Original MORGANS the dies were falling apart, As seen by the Awesome Die Breaks and their stages. The modern, No Clue.....
I do NOT believe these modern day Anniversary coins are struck at the same forces as the Originals, Also the Moderns show NO LUSTER. No Cartwheels!!!! jmo.

So, I now have everything I ordered 3 S Morgan, 2 D Morgan, 3 P Morgan and 3 P Peace. I only got 2 of the Ds because I made a mistake and didn't want to risk the time to correct it. Also, I didn't get any CC or O because it was a fiasco. None of the coins I received appear to have any flaws. So now I am looking for a box to store them in. Why didn't they use the same size box as the ASEs? What kind of storage boxes do you use if you want to keep them in the OGP? I was think of just using the mint set or proof set storage boxes.

I have all mine as well. The last box was delivered just a few minutes ago (I'll unbox them after dinner). @HappyHippo, the box they used for the 2021 Morgans and Peace dollars are the same size as the recent commemorative boxes. |

I went to my local coin shop today to drop off a 2021 Philly Morgan I ordered for my buddy who works there. I noticed the shop already was selling a variety of them already. They priced the 'Privy' Morgans at $150 each and the others at $115 each. This doesn't make me feel like I can get $1,000 for the 6-pack set.  My buddy said that pricing dropped quite a bit at the Pittsburgh show last week. |

I received my 3 Peace dollars today. I really like the Peace dollar in the burnished look. If, per the legislation, they mint a 2022 Peace dollar I will be buying one. The Morgans I ordered I sold immediately. The burnished look just doesn't look right on a Morgan. I'd rather have a nice GSA CC one. Edited by DoubleEagle20

Morgan P arrived with open airtite capsule These capsules have changed since last year. This one simply doesn't shut, it's trivial to open and close. Why is there so much fiber debris in all of these capsules. Anyway, the coin itself looks top notch, nearly flawless with magnifying glass, luckily no damage. Final tally: Morgan S: flawless obverse and reverse Morgan P: flawless reverse and tiny mark behind head Morgan CC: flawless reverse and tiny marks on upper cheek Peace: flawless reverse and tiny mark on peak of neck collar and another on upper cheek Nothing major, to the naked eye they all look great, but only the Morgan S appears flawless with magnify. I only opted to buy one privy and one mint mark. *shrug* Edited by Corbe

I just received my Peace dollar, I now have all of them. The Denver minted coin capsule was open when I opened the box, the coin has a small ding, looks like it was likely from production, not the capsule being open. The Philly coin coin has an easily seen haze on the obverse. The Peace dollar is the easily the nicest looking coin of the 6 coin set. Overall the mint managed to drop a turd on what could've been a more diverse set of coin finishes. The packaging also sucked, to put it kindly. The Peace dollar is easily my favorite, the details seem much sharper and better produced than any of the Morgan's. |

The last 2 Peace dollars have arrived. For now I am keeping both. Both look perfect. I did have to open the OGP as there was a long pink thread inside the OGP. I know people said the OGP just popped open, I had a towel on the desk, gloved hands and a small wedge and the plastic case did not want to open, after about 3 minutes it popped open and the pink fiber is gone. Coin got a good blow with a bulb and looks even better outside the case but I put the top case back on and packed it back up. |
