Question: DMPL Morgans are fairly common, but I don't recall ever seeing one in the Peace design. I was curious as to the reason for the phenomenon. Did the mint use different presses, tonnage or maybe change the way they process dollar stock? In other words, what changed in the minting process to produce the new finish - I don't suppose it had anything inherently to do with a new design - that prevented Peace DMPL's from occurring?
