1926-S Peace Dollar MS-62 NGC
The 1926-S Peace Dollar represents a fascinating era of United States coinage, minted during the interwar years as a symbol of national hope. Struck at the San Francisco Mint, this specific silver dollar carries the 'S' mint mark, distinguishing its origin from other branch mints of the period. The coin is composed of 90% silver, containing 0.7734 troy ounces of precious metal. This specimen has been certified in Mint State 62 (MS-62) condition, preserving the intricate details of its original design. The obverse features the profile of Liberty facing left, adorned with a radiant crown, alongside the inscribed motto 'IN GOD WE TRUST'. The reverse displays a majestic eagle perched on a mountain peak, looking toward a rising sun, with the word 'PEACE' inscribed at the base. The denomination is clearly marked as 'ONE DOLLAR'. With a recorded mintage of 6,980,000 pieces, the 1926-S is a compelling piece of American numismatic history. Its survival in uncirculated condition allows enthusiasts to appreciate the artistry and craftsmanship of the San Francisco Mint during the mid-1920s.
