In the 1920s following World War I, hope for peace inspired a whole new U.S. dollar coin – the cherished Peace dollar. And the very first 90% silver dollars of the popular new series were the fabulous high relief 1921 issues – offered to you here in affordable Genuine condition.
Working hard from December 28th to the 31st, the Philadelphia Mint struck barely a million first-year Peace dollars. But what really makes the beautiful 1921 dollar a “key” to the series is high collector demand, coupled with the fact that it is the only U.S. silver dollar struck in high relief and a one-year-only type (in 1922, relief was lowered to make production easier). The high relief enhances Anthony de Francisci’s artistic depictions of Liberty and the eagle.
Limited supply of 1921 Peace Dollars! Writing in 1992, expert Q. David Bowers said, “…Nearly all 1921 Peace dollars were distributed within a few years… I have never even heard of one original bag.” Prized high relief 1921 Peace dollars are usually found only 2 or 3 at a time, so it takes us some time to accumulate enough to offer in our catalogs. Make this affordable key date the centerpiece of your collection today!
