Peace Dollars

(1921 - 1935)

The Peace Dollar was introduced in late 1921 to commemorate the end of World War I and symbolize a new era of peace. Designed by Anthony de Francisci, the obverse features a radiant portrait of Liberty inspired by his wife, Teresa, while the reverse depicts a perched eagle resting on a rock with the word “PEACE” prominently inscribed below.

Peace Dollars were struck in 90% silver and 10% copper, weighing 26.73 grams—the same standard as the Morgan Dollar. The initial 1921 issue was struck in high relief, creating striking detail but production challenges; beginning in 1922, the design was modified to lower relief for easier minting.

Produced through 1935 at Philadelphia, Denver, and San Francisco, the series includes several better dates, such as the 1928 (Philadelphia). As the final circulating 90% silver dollar of the classic era, the Peace Dollar remains a popular and historically significant series among collectors.
