In December 1921, the United States Mint began production of the final 90% silver dollar coin design that would be struck in great numbers and used widely in circulation across the country. The Peace Silver Dollar was conceived to honor the hard-won peace of World War I and would replace the 1921 Morgan Dollar as the final silver dollar issued into circulation. The 1921 Peace Dollar is notable for its high-relief strike and is one of only three circulation coins ever struck in high relief. Today, certified 1921 Peace Silver Dollar Coins are available at JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
The US Mint did not start Peace Dollar production until December 1921, as it needed a new design for the coin. When silver dollar coining resumed in 1921, the Morgan Dollar was used throughout most of the year while a new design was created. The 1921 Peace Dollar is notable for its high-relief strike, though the excessive pressure required to strike high-relief coins often resulted in shortened die life, excessive die breakage, and issues with production. As a result, many 1921 Peace Dollars have weak strikes.
All 1921 Peace Silver Dollar Coins offered in this listing come in About Uncirculated 55 condition. The coins may showcase extremely light or trace wear on the highest relief points with medium to near-full luster. The Philadelphia Mint was the only branch mint to issue 1921 Peace Dollars.
The obverse of 1921 Peace Dollar Coins features a left-profile bust of Lady Liberty. Designed by Anthony de Francisci, the image depicts Liberty with free-flowing hair and a towering crown of light on her head.
On the reverse of the 1921 Peace Silver Dollar is an American bald eagle. The bird is shown with its wings at its sides as it sits perched on a rock ledge, clutching a sapling. There are rays of sunshine emanating from the distant horizon.
