I can't seem to find anything about these using the search function and there isn't a lot about the on the net So can anyone add to what I have found out so far - 2022 -Silver Shortage - US Mint cancels these so someone gets Fiji to mint 5000 Peace and Morgan Revers Proofs and they sell them on HSN I have also found six coin sets Are these worth the prices you see on ebay? I like weird stuff so this seems to qualify for that so I'll probably try to get a 2 coin set Is there anything I should know or consider when searching for these *** Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. ***

I recall the FUJI Mint had minted the 2022 " Morgan dollars " ( their versions ) because the U S Mints did not mint them. The Sets were IMO, not all that, essentially a reproduced version of Our Morgan dollars. The prices for these were very high, Maybe they came down . Have you checked E-Bay.... The HSN network and Mike ? were selling these exclusively, Maybe not anymore, Sorry I could not help more, Best wishes, MD

For the record, this topic moved from US NCLT to the World Coins and Commemoratives Forum because these were minted in and issued by Fiji, not the US Mint. They are not US legal tender.

For the record, NGC has 1,387 people posting "Morgan and Peace dollars, Modern Issues, 2021-Date, Complete" sets. I wasn't able to find equivalent for PGCG. The demand for these will heavily depend on set registry requirements.

Once I saw the set in person I had to get them I think the $90 each price was pretty good considering that they currently sell for a lot more on ebayI also picked up a 1986 ASE for $34 which wasn't a bad price either These will be a reminder of Covid and how it affected collections Now I need to figure out how to jail break them since I keep all of my coins in CAPS pages

The ANACS are a little different but it I figure the typical "twist beween the edges" method looks like it will work

I was able to use the "twist" method with a flat tip screwdriver to jail break these Once out of the slabs I discovered that these are thicker than a real Peace or Morgan dollarWhich makes sense because they are the same diameter but weight 1 ounce so that weight has to go somewhere Unfortunately they will not fit into an Air-Tite Direct Fit H-38 Capsule But they did just barely fit into an standard H capsule which I believe is an H-40 When they didn't fit into the H-38, I figured I basically turned them into bullion since most people would not want these once removed from the slabs But I got it worked out Now I'm on the search for the 2021 UC set and the 2023 Proof Set
