My latest @dcarr piece. I bought it as a Christmas gift to myself. I've been watching it for a month or two when the seller had it at $199 then dropped it to $128 so I nabbed it. Its a 2015 Moonlight Mint open house broadstruck Moragn overstrike with the "Daniel Carr for President" obverse and Moonlight Mint Open House reverse. I love the "Daniel Carr for President" obverse. Its like an artist's self portrait and this being on a Morgan sealed the deal for me, I just thought $199 was high but the $128 was priced right. This is my favorite die pairing of all the MMOH overstrikes too :)

Congrats! Always good to treat yourself from time to time!

Your images show a distorted coin (i.e., not round). Is that the case or is it just the image that is "out of round"?

Not the pic. It was broadstruck out of a collar. That's what you get

Thanks guys. I'm really starting to dig the open house overstrikes. They are low mintage and unique. Each is like a snowflake.

Thanks guys. Yes this piece is interesting. It ranks in my top 5 Carr creations for sure. I just got another Carr too. Wicked good deal. My last buy of the year. People were asleep at the wheel! I'll post it once it's in hand
