Presidential Dollars vs Peace Dollars You should be shocked.
$$$ vs Points a joke?
Modern vs obsolete still laughing?
Pot metal vs Silver you got to be kidding!!!!!!!As I slowly move my attention away form the mainstream modern coins and focus more on the obsolete series. I began to realize that the coins coming out of the mint now days are plain or down right ugly or a copy of a classic design as in the SAE's mimicking the Walking Liberty Halves, Buffalos like Buffalo nickels or the UHR, the St-Gaudens $20 dollar gold piece, to name a few. They went from artists and skilled craftsmen to computer aided drawing and machines run by computers. Something has been lost in that process. While I was thinking about this I made the decision to get rid of my 2nd Presidential dollar collection. I hated to give up the 6800 points but oh well. Then I realized that these18 ugly golden colored coins were worth more points than my completed set of Peace Dollars which contains at least 6 coins that are individually worth more than the whole set of Presidentials. With the mintage of just one pair of p&d Presidential Dollars more than the mintage of all the Peace Dollars combined. I checked out the going price of the golden dollars and resigned my self to the fact that they are selling for $5-$10 apiece I say good riddance. So in closing what can be said about the fact that 18 coins that will sell for between $90-$180 dollars combined are worth more registry pts than an $8,000 Peace Dollar collection, nothing it is what it is!!!!!!
