Description
1927-S Peace Dollar, MS66
Beautiful Condition Census Example
1927-S $1 MS66 PCGS. The 1927-S is among the rarest dates in
the Peace dollar series in MS66 and finer condition. The PCGS and
NGC population figures rank the 1927-S as the third rarest issue in
these grades, with only the 1925-S and 1928-S being rarer.
According to auction appearance rates, the 1927-S is still the
third rarest issue in MS66 and finer condition, but all of the rare
San Francisco issues in the Peace dollar series are so rare in this
condition that a comparison is almost pointless: We have never
handled a 1925-S or 1928-S in this grade, and even the 1923-S and
1924-S coins have only appeared in our auctions on a couple of
occasions each in MS66. We have previously handled only a single
Premium Gem example of the 1927-S -- a PCGS coin in our April 2011
Central States Signature that realized $48,875. During the decade
since that offering, no other MS66 example of this issue has
appeared at auction with any major firm, making the present
offering a once-in-a-decade opportunity for the advanced Registry
collector.Each side displays vibrant, softly frosted mint luster and a bold strike, with delicate iridescence throughout otherwise snow-white surfaces. Liberty's cheek and the adjacent field are especially clean, save for a few faint marks near the L in LIBERTY. Eye appeal is outstanding, as one would expect of a Peace dollar in this grade. This piece is the primary CoinFacts plate coin, and it is arguably the most attractive of the known Condition Census examples. Population: 3 in 66, 0 finer (3/22).(Registry values: N4719)
