1934 Peace Dollar, MS67
CAC Approved, Tied for Finest Known
Unsurpassable Registry Candidate

1934 $1 MS67 PCGS. CAC. The 1934 Peace dollar is one of just four issues in the series with a mintage below 1 million coins (954,057 pieces). The date is generally plentiful through MS65 and is only marginally elusive in MS66. However, Superb Gems are incredible rarities. PCGS and NGC combined report 15 pieces in MS67 with none so much as Plus-graded finer (7/21). Yet, there is likely duplication even in these small figures. To our knowledge, this is one of only two MS67 PCGS coins that have ever appeared at public auction. The last NGC coin to sell at auction appeared more than a decade ago in our October 2009 Dallas Signature.

The technical quality of this piece is outstanding even among its few peers in this grade. One of just two MS67s endorsed by CAC, it displays essentially pristine satin luster. A few russet freckles of toning around the borders accent iridescent ivory interiors, complementing the unabraded "skin" of the surfaces. The strike is sharp throughout, most notably in the centers.

Despite its minimal mintage for the series, the 1934 Peace dollar has had relatively little recognition as a better date since low- and middle-grade pieces are readily accessible. However, Superb Gems have emerged as great rarities, and are thus objects of ever-increasing desire among Registry Set builders. The quality and eye appeal of the present coin place it firmly within the Condition Census. Population: 10 in 67, 0 finer. CAC: 2 in 67, 0 finer (7/21).
