Peace Dollar

Brief Description

The obverse features the profile head of Liberty wearing a radiate crown, with the word 'LIBERTY' above and the year below. The reverse (not visible) typically depicts a bald eagle perched on a rock inscribed with 'PEACE'.

Historical Significance

Designed by Anthony de Francisci to commemorate the end of World War I, it was the first US dollar to symbolise peace and was the last silver dollar struck for circulation in the United States.

Estimated Value

$25 - $40 (depends on silver market and condition; high-grade specimens can be worth considerably more)

Care Instructions

Handle only by the edges to prevent skin oils from causing oxidation. Do not clean with chemicals or abrasives, as this can severely decrease numismatic value. Store in an acid-free holder in a cool, dry place.
