I seem to recall that there were some given to certain people as tokens of appreciation or something like that.
1921 vs 1922-1935: Obverse depth-of-relief is 0.030" vs 0.016". The Reverse sides are nearly identical low-relief 0.015" vs 0.014". See the comparison chart (scroll down): http://www.dc-coin.com/1grabenercoinpressmedallionsaleprice-1-6-1-1-2.aspx
I certainly would be in appreciation if everyone gave me their MS66+ 1921 Peace Dollar. Or any for grade for that regard @Randy Abercrombie
Granted, in my time I have gifted a lot of coins. Always though to the prepubescent crowd though. I am thinking you may be disqualified from that group....
It is bad form to make an old guy with an enlarged prostate laugh that hard!..... I didn’t even notice that... Probably could use a random orbit sander on those nails too.
There is only one of those known, it turned up in a mixed group of circulated Peace dollars. I believe they made about 35,000 of them, there are probably more out there. The key is knowing what to look for.
I just bought this 1921 High-Relief Peace Dollar on EBAY... the toning is awesome, it has high reflectivity, and very minimal non-detracting contact marks on both the obverse and reverse. Doesn't look like the polished dies I've seen on-line (VAMs), nor one of those proofs cause I've never seen a really well toned one. So perhaps a business strike? Looking for feedback please. Tell me what you think of this coin?

I'm so sorry I don't know how to do that... will have to wait for the Peace to come back from PCGS in Cal in order to take more pictures. I mailed it off 2 Nov from Savannah, GA. It should round trip sometime in Dec.
Besides grading I also asked PCGS for a "True View" set of obverse and reverse pictures. That should show in my email inbox before the coin comes back. I will post them when they arrive.... should have excellent resolution and scalability, much better than I can do with my limited technology skill sets.
Finally received my 1921 Peace Dollar TrueView Photos back from PCGS. Here they are. Color-wise the photos really don't do the toning justice as visually it has a very striking iridescent golden amber color throughout with hues of azure, maroon and bisque around the words IN on the obverse and the lettering above the eagle on the reverse. Put a bright light on this coin at 45 degrees at say 3 O'clock, and those luminous colors make the high relief detail just pop!
