1926 S Peace Dollar and

other key and semi key date Peace Dollars. I got this Peace Dollar to commemorate and celebrate the birth year of my grandfather. I also plan to get the 1927 P,D, and S, as well. Aside from the obvious 1921 key date, what are other dates in this series would you pick if you were not going to collect the entire run? These are the best shots I could get of mine. I didn't want to put it under "what it's worth" thread, but I am curious to know those that do collect this series, what would you value this at? Given if the pictures are good enough to evaluate? Many thanks.

27 PD&S is a great start as well as the 26 PD&S. I've been collecting Peace Dollars for a couple of years now from a VAM perspective. I do know that the 24 and 25 S are of more value, so I look for them as well. The 28 is king and have yet to score one that wasn't cleaned, scratched or damaged in some way. (pretty pricy)
Your 26 S is in great shape provide those scratches above TRVST are file lines. If they are in fact file line I would say yours would possibly grade at AU58 up to MS63, hard to tell from pics, but, having said that, great pics. Raw, I would pay $30-$45 it could go higher....IMO

 

Thanks. I figured the 1925-1928 Era for Peace dollars are pretty good dates.

 

From 1934 on seem good too.

Nice Michael, great info! SilverHouse, I also noticed that yours is clashed as well, note the spike on eagles shoulder under beak (is there 1 or 2 spikes?) and also right of the olive leaves. Cool!

 

It's an easy set to accomplish if you just want to do a nice AUish set, but it gets substantially more difficult in finer grades. An AU set will cost you about two grand, but an MS set will run about 10-15 grand.

 

True dat Kirk!

 

Peace Dollars are becoming very difficult to find in original (uncleaned) condition.

 

I figured I'd better get at least some of the more desirable dates and mm's. I know it is an expensive series no matter how you slice it. Also, about the clash, it looks like one spike to me.

 

I've got a 1934. I thought I had a 1928 but it's a 1923, ahahah. It's OK they were freebies.

 

My set that I put together in F-AU cost about a grand. Here is my F 1928.

 

Visit Paul Simms......he's the visionary of premium Quality BU (AU/Slider)........

 

I always go for UNC. if budget allows. Thanks for the reference. Though so far haven't read anything too positive.

 

@Silverhouse Peace dollars don't get the love that they really deserve...does anyone know if the "V" in TRVST if for victory?? I would say your 1926 is an AU-55.

 

Very nice Peace had to look at second picture of reverse for that 'spike'.

 

I figured as much. I hate when lc's bill them as unc's when they're not. I'm on the lookout for the P and D 1926.

 

When I started collecting, I bought a nice 26P ms63 in an ANACS slab for 67.00, but I don't have a 26S...your post has renewed my interest! Thanks.

 

It wasn't meant to be positive.......they guys a 'rake', a 'charlatan', a 'bounder'......

 

Too funny. Told you this wasn't my series. LOL

 

You're welcome.
