<p>[QUOTE=&quot;houston_ray, post: 569868, member: 1943&quot;]Good Day to all</p><p><br /></p><p>I completed a nice set of Peace Dollars in XF-AU.&nbsp; I really like this offbeat short set; it&#039;s not in the limelight for most collectors, but I encourage it for anyone who likes S$ yet doesn&#039;t want to mess with myriad Morgans or newer dollar editions.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s my question:</p><p><br /></p><p>It appears to me that Peace dollars represent a set in which value versus mintage are more &quot;out of whack&quot; than many other sets.&nbsp; For instance:</p><p><br /></p><p>The &quot;key&quot; dates for PRICE are the 1921, 1928, and 1934-S.&nbsp;&nbsp; The mintage for these dates are 1 million, 360 thousand, and 1 million, respectively.</p><p><br /></p><p>Yet here are four more dates that have similar mintage, yet are nowhere near as valuable:</p><p><br /></p><p>1927 (848 thousand), 1927-S (866 thousand), 1934-D (1.6 million) and 1935 (1.5 million).</p><p><br /></p><p>Can anyone provide the reason that two of the three lowest mintage Peace dollars are not &quot;key&quot; price, along with the others mentioned.&nbsp; Not by a longshot.</p><p><br /></p><p>Was there some historical issue?&nbsp; Major melt down of certain Peace dollars, giant bags were lost, etc.??&nbsp; Seeking if anyone has a specific clue versus a &quot;generic&quot; answer to this question. </p><p><br /></p><p>I recognize for a variety of reasons that mintage and price are not parallel.&nbsp; Indeed, the cost for a given grade is another big variable.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>However, for Peace dollars it appears quite exaggerated.</p><p><br /></p><p>Kind Regards</p><p>Houston_Ray[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
