Description

1925-S $1 MS65 PCGS. The 1925-S, along with the 1928-S, is perhaps the most difficult Peace dollar to find in high grades. The present Gem is fully brilliant, with frosty silver surfaces and hints of ivory color on both sides. The central obverse and reverse are a trifle weak, as always on this issue. In fact, we have described this date as a "strike rarity" in the past. Combine this concept with that of "condition rarity," and the result is a truly remarkable numismatic item, an important example for the series connoisseur. Neither NGC nor PCGS has ever certified a finer example. Population: 36 in 65, 0 finer (3/09).
