1935-P & S Peace Silver Dollar 2-pc Set VF–XF

Last Two 90% U.S. Silver Dollars Struck for Circulation

The Peace Silver Dollar was struck from 1921 to 1928, and again in 1934 and 1935. It was the last United States silver dollar struck for circulation in 90% fine silver, and in its final year of production, just two mints struck the coin — the Philadelphia Mint and the San Francisco Mint. This set brings both of those last-year coins together!

In this offer you’ll receive a 1935-S Peace Dollar in Very Fine (VF) condition and a 1935-P Peace Dollar in Extremely Fine (XF) condition. They will come beautifully housed in a deluxe presentation case and accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity and a storybook about Peace Silver Dollars.

The Iconic Design of America’s Short-Lived Peace Dollar

Designed by 34-year-old Italian-American sculptor Anthony de Francisci, the Peace Dollar’s obverse features the head of Lady Liberty wearing a crown of rays modeled after the design of the Statue of Liberty. The model for Lady Liberty was 23-year-old Teresa Cafarelli de Francisci, the young sculptor’s wife. Imprinted on the coin’s obverse are “LIBERTY,” “IN GOD WE TRUST,” and the year of issue. The reverse features an eagle at rest clutching an olive branch before a rising sun, along with the inscriptions “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “E PLURIBUS UNUM” and the denomination “ONE DOLLAR.”

Dwindling Supplies of Peace Silver Dollars

Unlike its predecessor, the Morgan Silver Dollar, Peace Dollars were not nearly as prolific, with far fewer releases and just a third the number of total coins released to the public. Many Peace Dollars were also damaged during circulation so finding nice examples of these attractive coins today can be quite difficult. In fact, coin experts estimate that as few as 16% of all Peace Dollars estimated to still exist in any condition. And with the series’ 100th anniversary in 2021 heating up collector demand, now is a great time to ensure that you have these last-year Peace Dollars for your collection. Don’t wait, order now!
