1922 SGS GRADED SLABBED MS66
SILVER PEACE DOLLAR
By early 1922,
the Peace dies were redesigned in order to eliminate the early die failures and
the stacking problems encountered late in 1921. Thus, changes were made to
reduce the high relief of the previous year. On the obverse, the field was
somewhat flattened and the alphabetic characters were made with thinner
proportions. Another line was added to Liberty's headband, and three short rays
were added to the left of her crown. On the reverse, the relief was lowered, a
third mountain peak was added, the number of sun rays was reduced, and the eagle
was modified slightly. These changes remained in effect until the end of 1928.
The strike was pretty good for a Peace dollar and the mint luster found on
specimens today is average or better. It is possible to find many pieces,
however, with a soft strike in the middle of the coin and in the area of the
date. Also, a substantial quantity of pieces appear to have stains, marring the
brilliance.
The primary problem with this issue is surface abrasions. Because many
uncirculated pieces are heavily abraded, true MS-65 coins are greatly
outnumbered by MS-60 pieces. Therefore, high quality merchandise is harder to
find in quantity, and the location of MS-65+ gems can, at times, be difficult.
