Product Description
1921 P, D or S Morgan Silver Dollar Very Fine: Under the Pittman Act of 1918, nearly 300 million Morgans had been melted and sold to Britain in bullion form during World War I. After the war, a provision of the Act authorized the minting of silver dollars equal to what was melted... but the Morgan hubs had been destroyed when the series was suspended after 1904. Therefore, the resulting 1921 silver dollars are unique to the series. You'll get a Philadelphia, Denver or San Francisco issue in Very Fine quality. Our choice of mintmark.
1922 P, D or S Peace Silver Dollar Very Fine: The U.S. Peace silver dollar was the last struck to circulate in American commerce. This big 90% silver coin was a hard-asset backbone of American money, in the days when a dollar was a dollar. It emerged in 1921, the year that the U.S./Germany Peace Treaty was ratified by Congress, which formally ended World War I. The inscription PEACE appears on the ledge where the American Eagle vigilantly stands guard for freedom while holding a peace branch. The first high-relief 1921 issue had created stacking problems at banks. These second year 1922 Peace silver dollars introduced the modified-relief engravings that became the standard for America's last circulating silver dollar series. You'll get a Philadelphia, Denver or San Francisco issue in Very Fine quality. Our choice of mintmark.
