HP2001PH Valued Member Germany 312 Posts	Posted 07/16/2022 02:35 am I have decided to go on with the Peace dollars I bought to start my collection. Here is one from 1922. I am really not sure about the grade. There definitely is sth like mint luster, but on the other hand a lot of details look ... worn. So AU, XF? No idea. Report this Post to the Staff

HP2001PH Valued Member Germany 312 Posts	Posted 07/16/2022 2:52 pm Thank you both for all your comments. panzaldi, I will answer you here for all the threads in that you asked: All my photos I posted on this board so far were done with the cap removed. No plastic between coin and lens. I still have to figure out how to make good pictures from coins. Is there maybe a guideline or sth. you could point me to? Gladly I will come back to your offer to give opinions about coins I have not yet bought - is this also the correct board for such requests? Considering the prices: I have bought my Peace dollars in the 30-35€ range so far. Morgan dollars were between 35€-60€. Before spending triple digits on a higher quality or rarer coin I will make sure to get your opinions here! PS I will try to get better pictures for all my grading threads that I opened so far! Probably tomorrow or so. Edited by HP2001PH 07/16/2022 2:54 pm Report this Post to the Staff

HP2001PH Valued Member Germany 312 Posts	Posted 07/18/2022 10:43 am Thanks for your replies. Could you point out what would have to be different or better to grade higher eg AU-55 or -58? Report this Post to the Staff
