Peace Silver Dollars

Peace Silver Dollars are a classic series of United States silver coinage struck from 1921 through 1935, representing the nation's transition away from the Morgan Dollar design. Composed of 90% silver (.900 fineness) and weighing 26.73 grams (approximately 0.7734 troy oz of pure silver), each coin carries a face value of one dollar. The obverse features a portrait of Liberty designed by sculptor Anthony de Francisci, while the reverse depicts a bald eagle at rest beside the word "PEACE" — a motif reflecting the optimism following World War I.

The Peace Dollar series spans mint facilities in Philadelphia, Denver, and San Francisco, producing coins across multiple years with varying mintages that have shaped today's collector market. Key dates, mintmarks, and certified grades all factor into how individual examples are evaluated within the Sheldon scale. NGC-certified examples in Mint State grades — MS-61 through MS-65 and beyond — are among the most actively collected, with MS-63 representing the sweet spot for original luster and overall eye appeal at an accessible grade level. The series is notable for being the last standard-circulation silver dollar produced by the United States Mint during the 20th century.

Lone Star Coins carries Peace Silver Dollars primarily in NGC-certified Mint State grades, with current inventory concentrated in strong mid-range MS grades including MS-61 and MS-63. Most examples on hand date from the early 1920s, the highest-mintage years of the series. Pricing reflects the live silver spot market plus numismatic premium for grade and certification.
