Peace Dollar



Peace Dollar Coins
 
 
 
 
The Peace Dollar coin was minted from 1921 to 1928, then again in 1934 and 1935. Early proposals for the coin called for a commemorative issue to coincide with the end of World War I, but the Peace Dollar was issued as a circulating coin.
 
Designed by Anthony de Francisci, the Peace Dollar was so named because the word PEACE appears on the bottom of the coin's reverse. It contains 0.77344 troy ounces of silver. Prior to the design and acceptance of the Peace Dollar, the Morgan Dollar was minted again in 1921.
 
After a six-year pause in minting, the Peace Dollar was again minted in 1934 and 1935. It was minted briefly in 1965 (dated 1964), but no examples of this issue were ever released to the public and the entire mintage was melted. The Peace Dollar is the last silver dollar minted for circulation in the United States.
