The Silver Peace Dollar was first issued by the United States Mint in the waning days of 1921. Silver dollar coining had resumed in January of that year with the 19th century Silver Morgan Dollar design. On December 28, 1921, the first Silver Peace Dollars were issued by the mint as it transitioned to a new design, one that would prove to be the last US silver dollar design used in circulation. Now, Silver Peace Dollar Coins in certified condition are available to you for purchase online from Silver.com.

Silver Peace Dollars were the last circulation silver dollar coins in US history. Like the previous versions of the US silver dollar, the Peace Dollar contained .7734 Troy ounces of 90% silver. The remaining metallic balance in the alloy was 10% copper for durability in circulation. The Peace Dollar was issued, in total, from 1921 to 1928 and again in 1934 and 1935.
In 1921, the United States Mint resumed silver dollar coining for the first time since 1904. The US Mint started with the revived Silver Morgan Dollar from 1878, but the public yearned for a new design that would reflect a nation hoping to remain at peace after the devastation of World War I. Anthony de Francisci submitted the winning design to replace the Morgan Dollar, with his new design going into production with just four days left on the calendar in 1921.
Lady Liberty features on the obverse side of Silver Peace Dollars. This left-profile portrait shows Liberty with a towering crown and softer features than previous designs. An American bald eagle is shown at rest in the reverse design of the Silver Peace Dollar coin. This visual shows the eagle in right-profile relief sitting on a perch with its wings at its sides and the sun on the horizon.
These Silver Peace Dollars come with a Mint State 63 certification. A coin in this condition has impaired mint luster with the possibility for numerous small contact marks and a handful of heavier contact marks. There is also the potential for small hairlines visible without magnification and detracting scuff marks. This grade was assigned by either the PCGS or NGC.
