SOLD
SKU
3435140

The Peace dollar is among the most beautiful designs in American numismatics, unique when compared to most other U.S. coins. The one coin that it derives some inspiration from is the $10 gold Indian Head eagle designed by Augustus Saint-Gaudens. PCGS has graded 629 of the 1934-S Peace dollars as MS64 with 359 finer.

When you purchase this 1934-S Peace dollar, you will own a beautiful example of numismatic art. Inspired by the earlier collaboration of President Theodore Roosevelt and famed sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens, this is the last of the series of new coin designs that began in 1907 with Saint-Gaudens's $10 gold Eagle and $20 gold Double Eagle. The 1934-S is one of the better dates in the Peace dollar series, one that would be an exciting addition to your collection.

 

Anthony de Francisci, the artist who crafted the beautiful Peace dollar design.

Upon its release, a newspaper in Philadelphia wrote, "Liberty is getting younger. Take it from the new 'Peace Dollar,' put in circulation yesterday, the young woman who has been adorning silver currency for many years, never looked better than in the 'cart wheel' that the Philadelphia Mint has just started to turn out. The young lady, moreover, has lost her Greek profile. [Hellenic] beauty seems to have been superseded by the newer 'flapper' type." Numismatic author Q. David Bowers writes, "In my opinion, the design is one of the most beautiful in American numismatics.... Peace dollars evoke a nostalgic era in United States history."
