Hello to all

This Saturday started off for me in a much different
way. I spent most of my Morning cleaning up my front
yard from 7:00am to 10:00. Since is was about 100
degrees, I stop working on my front yard and had
breakfast (Microwave Pizza and Coffee), and showered
then change cloths.

I left my house heading to the Public Library to
use the FREE WIFI. This is were this message is
coming from.

Before I got to the Phoenix Agave Public library in
North Phoenix, I stop at a local "Circle K" market
to get gas and some cash. When I get cash at the
local stores, I always ask for any dollar coins they
have.

The Circle K store at North 35th Avenue and Deer
Valley road gave me a 1923 Silver Peace Dollar Coin.
I was blown away to get this coin. I ask the clerk
how did he received this coin. He told me a teenager
gave him the coin for a soft drink.

I am guessing he stole the coin from his Parents or
Grandparents.

Just looking at the coin, I would place this coin
at either an "AU-55" or "AU-50" in grading. I will
examine the coin in greater detail once I get home.
Not sure were it was minted at yet. Will research it
later at home.

Fake peace dollars are quite common, so you'll want someone to authenticate
it before you get too excited.

Hello

I read the reviews on E-BAY on the 1928 Silver Peace
Dollar from the link below.

The one I have is stamped with the year 1923. Just
the same, I will have it weighed, measured, and examine
very closely. If anything, I have only lost a dollar on
it, if it is a fake.

The Chinese counterfeiters have targeted all dates. Sick.

Hmm, I just noticed that the reviewer is no longer a registered user. That
could speak volumes right there.
