I bought a 1927-S Peace dollar today for $100 in AU condition. I did throw in a 1922 Peace dollar into the deal so I guess I paid about $115-120. Just the 1921 and 1928 of expensive coins left and then Mercury dimes I think. However, I do like the Liberty Standing quarters but some of them are really pretty expensive.

Added to the Corkscrew Collection 1864 G $1 Indian Princess Dollar NGC PF 63+ CAC Ultra Cameo. The 1864 proof gold dollar had a small minting of only 50 coins. Jeff Garrett and Ron Guth estimate that fewer than 20 examples remain today in all grades, with two housed at the Smithsonian Institution.

The next three coins were purchased awhile back. This is my favorite coin. Considering my 4th Great Grandfather fought in the American Revolution I'm very fortunate to be able to afford a coin of the caliber. 1776 PCGS AU58 CAC Currency

Darth Morgan - got called away, and just getting back.....in response to your suggestion of a thread of a start to finish set.....maybe the next one. This one is a little too far along I think - I've completed the New Orleans Mint, and completed the Philadelphia Mint, and have the 1878 through the 1887 San Francisco Mint. That's a mite more optimizing than I care to do at this time. As I've done with the others, I'll post the album pages (obv & rev) in the member's photo galleries.....be awhile I'm sure as I'm creeping up on the 90s, and there are several I'll have to dig deep for.....one in particular! And, too, I haven't even started on the Carson City Mint yet, so.....definitely be awhile before I can put that last coin in that final hole. Oh, and I'm trying to keep them in the VF - EF grade range so.....
