1925-S Peace Dollar, MS65
Tied for Finest at PCGS and CAC
Major Condition Rarity

1925-S $1 MS65 PCGS. CAC. Ex: JDC. The 1925-S is famously one of the two biggest condition keys in the Peace dollar series, closely rivaling the 1928-S for status as the rarest Peace dollar in Gem condition. According to certified population figures, the 1925-S is minutely more plentiful in Gem and finer grades than the 1928-S, but according to actual availability of this issue at auction, the two dates are about identical in scarcity. When Roger Burdette wrote the text for A Guide Book of Peace Dollars (2008), the 1925-S was unknown finer than MS65; today, NGC lists a single MS66 coin, but there is still not so much as an MS65+ at PCGS. The JDC example is tied for finest at PCGS, and it is one of only seven pieces in this grade with CAC approval. Luster is frosty and well-preserved, complementing above-average strike sharpness. Faint ivory tinting warms the obverse, while the reverse displays dusky peach-amber toning. Eye appeal is outstanding for the issue, as recognized by CAC. Population: 49 in 65, 0 finer. CAC: 7 in 65, 0 finer (7/21).
