CelticKnot Bedrock of the Community United States 12819 Posts	Posted 07/10/2011 10:39 pm Can you tell me a little more about that coin? I cruised on over to the web site and all I could find on that particular (sold out, by the way) one was: Quote: Private high-quality over-strike on genuine non-proof 2009 Silver Eagle coin. Do not attempt to use as legal tender. NOT endorsed or approved by the US Mint, US Treasury, or US Government. Did they do anything besides add the DC mint mark? Report this Post to the Staff

CelticKnot Bedrock of the Community United States 12819 Posts	Posted 07/11/2011 3:00 pm Thanks, guys. I had forgotten that there was no US Mint 2009 ASE proof, so that helps. And from those two other CCF threads it sounds like Moonlight Mint used a 2009 bullion "blank" and just added the mint mark? Report this Post to the Staff
