To open a capsule I use a thin knife and go around the capsule edge prying a little bit at a time, not all at once, I go around the entire capsule a couple times. When it's mostly lose I pull it off, obviously don't let the knife slip and hit the coin. Not saying this is the best way. I've seen guys just use their fingers and with one yank pull capsule apart. But coin might go flying.

@tomtom777 Quote: I had my card locked and forgot to unlock it, I got a email Friday that they were going to cancel my order and I wasn't able to get through to them until yesterday but that was for CC Morgan. Then they email this morning about another order that basically said they ran out of them is how I took it. After I go through today the charge went through right away and hopefully they will ship now. It strange but the only times I could get through were when I clicked the link on website with my phone. Anytime I dial the number directly into phone it doesn't work and I get busy signal or phone not in service. I finally got through after calling for probably 5 hours. They asked me if the card was still good so they could reauthorize the transaction. I said it was. Don't know why they didn't just attempt the authorization again without my acknowledgment. I'm probably going to be the last person to actually get my coins. :-)

No one ever comments on my posts, but I do see a possibility of this thread spiraling into a nasty one regarding the quality of the US Mint's service AND overall product quality.

Quote: I just received this email from the US Mint, "An update on your order USM10xxxxxx" I received the same email  Quote:My heart stopped when I got the email notification with that subject line, fearing a problem with my Peace dollar order!  I had the same reaction.

I received the exact same email, to the effect of "please be patient". And I had the exact same gut wrenching feeling before I read it. Ordering coins shouldn't be such an emotional roller coaster!

I just ran into one "in hand" listing for the 2021 Peace... search for item # 165150445617... There is one other listing claiming to be in-hand BUT it looks like some sort of 3D computer scan of a coin...

I just opened my S and D Morgan's. The two S mint look perfect to me. The D has what I would call a hit or bag mark between the E and R in Liberty. More of a shinny gouge. Over all I'm satisfied. I do see the softness in detail others have mentioned. Pretty coins but not sharp details.

Ya jbuck, got the same email. Thought the same cause my p,s hit alone last night without the peace, then this afternoon got email saying peace are coming too. I received my 0, cc d and s all today. I am very pleased with the quality. Out of 26 coins I had 1 contact mark and 1 small stain. The packaging is the only complaint. Half of them were rolling around in the mint box and not enough packing in the cardboard outer box. I for one love the looks of them. At first with the pictures it looked like they were a polished look, but mine have a satin look.
