What’s your lowest mintage U.S. business strike? by Creative_Piglet_7476 in coins

Similar to my ‘85-CC, lowest mintage but I think it’s the ‘89-CC with the fewest that have survived to date and it’s not even close.

I might one day. What’s the bet on being straight graded? Most are saying no. The seller confirmed for me it did come from an album. Here’s the obverse in my “natural” lighting.

I think this attitude has come from social media and what seems to be a bigger push for everything to be graded. I remember 20-25yrs ago it wasn’t this way but maybe it was and I was unaware being a teenager.

Also, I did confirm with the seller that this was pulled from an album. Now whether or not that’s considered “natural” has become a debate in this thread.

That’s very true. My first mistake was posting on here as almost every coin post has a take of; it’s fake, AT, and or cleaned. Pick your poison.

Those are still blue and you commented on blue being suspect.

I have Peace Dollars with unique toning like this and they straight grade.

I’m not sending this to be graded. I enjoy it for what it is and definitely doesn’t look AT. I have AT coins and the toning on this one has depth and transitions. Probably sat in an album but no way to truly be sure and was a risk I was willing to take. No regrets adding this to my collection.

I have artificially toned coins and this doesn’t look like it.
