1922 Peace Silver Dollar, High Relief

I have a 1922 peace edition silver dollar. I have looked at several articles with pictures of both high relief and regular. Can I post a picture for you to look at?

That is also a low relief example.

 

You can't exactly go CRH'ing for them.

If you don't get Peace Dollars from relatives of Estate sales or some guy selling stuff from his collection then they've probably been searched over already.

In my thread someone brought up "high relief" too. If you have a 1921 to compare to then it's obvious. ==> https://www.cointalk.com/threads/1922-peace.310925/

 

1922s in that condition can go for less than the cost of getting them slabbed.

 

My dad gave this to me for my 10th birthday 34 years ago. It’s been in a box in my dresser for as long

 

That doesn't make it a high relief.

I have many coins from 40, 50 and 70+ years ago stored away.

You photos are too blurry really to see any specific detail, but just looking at it the field is too flat near the rim to be High Relief. If you had a 1921 to compare, it'd be obvious.

 

It looks like a nice Peace but take some more pictures at different angles so we can get a better idea of what it really looks like.

 

Nope, not a high relief.

 

I have a terrible camera. Hope these are better!

 

a normal, common 1922.
You could always send it in for grading at one of the top TPGs to prove us wrong.

 

It bears repeating.
From USA Coin Book:
The US Mint originally produced 35401 of these 1922 High Relief coins (mostly non-proof business strikes intended for general circulation) before going to a Normal relief design. Nearly all of these high relief coins were melted down a short time later by the US Mint. Only about 10 to 12 High Relief 1922 Proof (Matte Proof) Peace Dollars are estimated to exist. One stray non-proof business strike coin also exists.

 

Thanks, everyone. I know nothing about coins, and respect and agree with your opinions! I think I’ll put this back in the dresser and give it to my daughter when she gets a little older! Thanks again! It will be a treasured memory from her paw paw!

 

It's priceless from Paw, Paw.......

 

this is a bad condition 1922 but might be high relief

 

Your upload did not work.

 

Or you can just read post #32 and realize you have a common Peace Dollar.

 

I'm not a Pawn Stars fan, but here is an ACTUAL 1922 high relief (PF 61).
So that's pretty cool.
Because when you win an $80,000 coin in a poker game you don't bring it to Heritage Auctions or anything, you walk into a phony pawn shop. Cough, cough. OK. Of course I agree with this comment: He didn't win it in a poker game and it's probably not even his. Actors selling stuff that the producers picked out and then selected some bonehead to pretend it's his have him sign a NDA and you got your fake show

 

I only have one thing to say @Michael K Although I agree with your assessment.
It is Vegas. How many dealers would just fork out that kind of cash without a guarantee?
