About this product
Product Information
<h2>Ron Guth</h2><p>The 1922-D is the most common of all the Peace Dollars made at the Denver Mint. It's mintage of 15+ million is more than double that of the next closest (1923-D at 6+ million) and almost 12 times that of the lowest mintage Peace Dollar (1927-D). The vast majority of survivors are fairly equally distributed among the MS-63 and MS-64 grades. In MS-65, the 1922-D Peace Dollar becomes scarce. MS-66 examples become very scarce to rare and MS-67 examples are extremely rare.</p><p>The strike characteristics of the 1922-D are not as strong as on the P-Mints, and that tends to be true for an D-Mint Peace Dollar. However, fully struck examples are available and are worth a premium over softly struck coins. </p><p>According to a notice in the June 1934 issue of <em>The Numismatist</em> (p. 416), collectors could still purchase Uncirculated 1922-D Peace Dollars for "the face value of the coins and an amount sufficient to cover the mail charrges by first-class mail."</p><h2>Q. David Bowers</h2>The following narrative, with minor editing, is from my "Silver Dollars & Trade Dollars of the United States: A Complete Encyclopedia" (Wolfeboro, NH: Bowers and Merena Galleries, Inc., 1993).<br/><br/>Coinage Context <br/><br/>Initial issue: The 1922-D, the first Peace dollar issue struck at the Denver Mint, also had the highest Denver mintage of any date of the design. At the time, the Denver Mint had excellent facilities, was closer to newly-mined silver than Philadelphia, and was the logical mint to strike large quantities of the denomination. <br/><br/>Numismatic Information<br/><br/>Hoard coins: Although many if not most 1922-D dollars were released into circulation during the decade of their mintage, the production quantity was sufficiently large that if even 25% were held back, this amounted to millions of coins. Bags of 1922-D dollars were available on the market in the 1940s and very early 1950s. No one paid much attention to this date, and most languished in bank vaults or were paid out for use in circulation (in the West) or in gambling casinos. Bags of 1,000 Uncirculated coins were still readily available in 1953 and 1954, and wholesaled for about $100 to $150 above face value, but most holders of bags found that even the larger dealers in silver dollars were apt to want to buy just a few rolls at a time. <br/><br/>In the late 1980s and early 1990s a hoard of 50 bags (50,000 coins) began to be marketed. Dwight Manley examined them and found that the average bag of 1,000 coins contained Mint State examples approximately as follows: MS-66: 5 coins; MS-65: 70; MS-64: 200; MS-63: 225; MS-60 to MS-62: 500.(Letter to the author, July 6, 1992.)<br/><br/>John Highfill's Encyclopedia, 1992, p.1145, notes that "Uncirculateds are often heavily bagmarked, well-struck bags are available," which I take to mean that Uncirculated coins, when seen, are often with heavy bagmarks, and that bags of coins (with heavy bagmarks on the coins?) are in existence and contain coins that are well struck. <br/><br/>Circulated grades: The 1922-D is readily available in worn grades up to and including AU. Apparently, most were released into circulation shortly after they were minted. Among worn Peace dollars in VF-20 to AU-58 grades, the 1922-D is the commonest branch mint issue. <br/><br/>Mint State grades: Uncirculated pieces are common, but most exist in lower grade levels from MS-60 to MS-63. Bagmarks are plentiful on typical coins in these grades. MS-64 and MS-65 pieces are harder to find but still constitute the commonest branch mint Peace dollars at these grade levels. <br/><br/>Some coins have a bright-grainy surface (Wayne Miller and John Highfill call it "orange peel") possibly due to die resurfacing with a wire brush, or possibly to die wear. Some dies were employed beyond their useful life; coins struck from these show extensive die breaks, particularly on the obverse
