WOW thats neat. I hope its real. ive never heard of the Peace dollar even being thought of in 1964 though. Good luck and id have it certified right away if it was me

What does something like this go for?

Either, grats!

Bobby and Susan, I think your ship just came in! Congratulations! (Well, at least until it's authenticated. Fingers crossed!)

Congrats to both of you.

For your sake I hope it is real and you sell it for a fortune.

Let us know how you go.

If the coin is real, and you become multi-millionaires, will you still maintain the forum?

Morganiere,
All Peace dollars have the "V" in Trust. What makes this potentially so special is the date. They were not regularly minted after 1935. The story goes that some were minted in 1964 to use up silver stores (1965 began the use of clad coinage in American "silver" coins) Some were given to select politicians and other officals "on the sly". All were supposed to have been destroyed(and/or confiscated). Some supposedly slipped by the melting. If this is real, it would be a remarkable find.

Bobby, is there a "D" mintmark on the reverse below the one? See the statistics and story below.I put these tidbits together from several blogs on google. I could not figure out the original authors as most were reprints. (many of the stories have very conflicting information). I pray that Bobby and Susan snagged a real one!!!They really deserve it.... Mike

1964 Peace dollar
At the Denver mint, in order to begin using the stock pile of silver, several hundred thousand 1964 Peace dollars were made at the Denver Mint in the "trolley building" across the street to the west of the current mint building. They were coined in great secrecy and only during the day shift. One day the workers came to a locked up work place and were forced to sign an affidavit indicating that they had never worked on this project and knew nothing about these '64 Peace dollars, in effect, that their work of several weeks never happened.

All of the '64 Peace dollars were supposedly melted down. Though security was much less efficient then, a current mint official(this was posted in 1994?) who was working on the project at the time thinks that very few ever left the building. However, this official(name not disclosed) does believe that some got out into the hands of various officials and the like, because, "There were often calls from senators and state officials, and others like the Mayor of Denver, seeking copies." The official said he feels there are "probably 6 or so" somewhere out there that were not melted. Others have said that there are as many as a 2 or 3 bags.

Coin "doctors" sometimes make them in the following manner. They Take the 4 from a common 1924 and the 6 from a common 1926, put them on a high grade 1923D, do some "coin magic" blending them together and end up with a 1964. Some "Copies" are available for under $40.00
