I'm really hoping that the Morgan and Peace dollars don't become an annual addition to the US Mint's production calendar.

Thanks@Eagle4Life, I missed that.
I hope they mint a proof version of a Morgan and Peace next year. I don't think it should continue as an annual event. Make one time proofs to order during an open enrollment period.

Considering the debacle with processing of the current coins I reached out to the US Mint to ask if there was going to be a debacle on the Peace and Morgans and was told:
Kind of paraphrasing here:
"As we can't mail almost 1 million coins, we have started shipping these to the distributor to start packing them for shipment. All will be shipped around the same time."
I know it doesn't really say much but could the mint actually have thought about the debacle the Peace and Morgan can be if they can't ship 125k Reverse Proof coins?
Or am I being naive?

It's a 100th anniversary coin, not a 101st, 102nd, 103rd, and so and so forth, anniversary coin. The Public law name is the "1921 Silver Dollar Coin Anniversary Act". Another bill needs to be submitted and made into public law before the Secretary of the Treasury can authorize the Director of the Mint to manufacture a 2022 and beyond Morgan and/or Peace dollars. https://www.congress.gov/116/plaws/...6publ286.pdf

I read this article in Coin Worldhttps://www.coinworld.com/news/prec...nnual-series"Mint Director David J. Ryder raised that possibility during a May 4 Microsoft Teams video conference with numismatic journalists. The enabling legislation, the 1921 Silver Dollar Coin Anniversary Act, Public Law 116-286, grants the Mint authority to issue additional Morgan and Peace dollars dated 2022 and beyond as an ongoing series." The law states: "SEC. 5. ISSUANCE OF COINS. The Secretary may issue coins minted under this Act beginning on January 1, 2021." SEC. 4. DESIGN OF COINS. (B) an inscription of the year of minting or issuance; and The law, 1921 Silver Dollar Coin Anniversary Act, does specify a completion date. In section 4 (B) the wording does not specify 2021 as the only date of mintage. I read the laws for the State Quarters and the national site quarters. The laws specify when the mintage will start and end. I am no Lawyer, but I do know that laws need to be specific. This does not have a specified end date.

Interesting. Guess we'll have to wait til 2022 to find out if they will continue the new Morgan and Peace, maybe the last day of 2022 they will announce it.

I'm hoping it continues but I'll only do the Peace dollars going forward.

That is where they deposit all your cash and just write you a personal check.

I am not fond of the idea of continuing uncirculated Morgans/Peace. However I would love to get my hands on other finishes. Proof, Proof like, Reverse Proof, Enhanced Uncirculated, Enhanced Reverse Proof, or Enhanced Proof.
