Pmint1 Valued Member United States 465 Posts	Posted 04/15/2024 9:50 pm I like the idea of a 79-s or 81-s Morgan like Slider suggested. If you want to expand it later you could include PL and DMPL with those dates. Report this Post to the Staff
BStrauss3 Pillar of the Community United States 4593 Posts	Posted 04/15/2024 11:06 pm I think you will find it difficult with Peace dollars, because strike is so important with them. You can certainly find, say MS63, but a lot of them are going to be ugly, weakly struck coins. I recommend Mercury dimes from one of the early war years - they seem to be common. Or one of the 1936-1938 Buffalos. -----Burton 50+ year / Life / Emeritus ANA member (joined 12/1/1973) Life member: Numismatics International, CONECA Member: TNA, FtWCC, NETCC, EveryCountry (online) coin club Owned by three cats and a wife of 40+ years (joined 1983) Author: 3rd Edition of the Sample Slabs book, https://www.sampleslabs.info/ Report this Post to the Staff
One50 Valued Member United States 361 Posts	Posted 04/28/2024 9:48 pm I decided on 1879-S Morgans, it meets my criteria. It's a big coin, it has a mint mark, affordable in MS, easy to off load (Large group of Morgan collectors) and a date that has no repeating digits. My first coin arrived this week. I have 2 more on the way and I still have 2 more to seek out. I can't wait. Dan Report this Post to the Staff

One50 Valued Member United States 361 Posts	Posted 04/30/2024 7:52 pm Just had a minor setback...lol. 2 more packages arrived today for this challenge, but only 1 coin was in one of the packages. The other package was opened and no coin was in it. If you happen to see an 1897-S Morgan in MS from ANACS laying around, let me know. The package could have been mechanically opened (postal machine drama) or it could have been opened by hand, hard to tell. I'll be stopping back at the post office tomorrow and see if they found it laying around the shop floor. Coin collecting is always an adventure. Report this Post to the Staff
Pmint1 Valued Member United States 465 Posts	Posted 04/30/2024 7:57 pm This reminds me of a time when I bought a guitar and it looked like a fork lift went through it. Completely destroyed but thankfully an inexpensive guitar and usps made it right. Report this Post to the Staff
