Adam_E Pillar of the Community United States 4846 Posts	Posted 07/25/2020 11:22 pm I would consider the Peace dollar to be a cull coin, so similar to a cleaned coin. "ruined" no, but It's definitely damaged IMO. I wouldnt pay more than $18 shipped for the lot. If you find the Peace dollar to be pretty maybe a couple bucks more would be worth it, but it's unlikely you'd find a buyer for what you paid unless the price of silver were to go up.

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 07/26/2020 08:02 am I wouldn't say "ruined", but you've only got $20-25 worth of value there. Report this Post to the Staff

Princetane Pillar of the Community 4628 Posts	Posted 09/02/2020 04:29 am For what rhyme or reason would anyone paint a silver dollar like that. Just seems bizarre, If you can remove it, by all means go ahead! Report this Post to the Staff
