Description

1923-S $1 MS65 PCGS. Even though more than 19 million pieces were struck of the 1923-S, few Gems have been certified. This is because examples must have a certain strength of strike to make the grade and, of course, few 1923-S Peace dollars actually do have enough central definition. This coin does not have the strike of a 1923-P, but it has surprising details for an S-mint. Additionally, the surfaces are brilliant and possess coruscating mint frost with no obvious abrasions. PCGS has only certified three finer examples (2/09).
