Description
Sharply Struck 1928-S Gem Peace Dollar
With Satiny Surfaces and Iridescent Rim Patina
1928-S $1 MS65 PCGS. The mintage of 1928-S Peace dollars
exceeded 1.6 million pieces, but most of them suffer from abrasions
or strike deficiencies that keep them from the Gem level. The
present example is a wonderful exception to the rule, with center
details that are close to a full strike, and a relative lack of
contact that puts this piece well within the confines of the Gem
grade. The satiny surfaces show soft silver-gray patina that
deepens near the rims into wonderful iridescent colors. In this
grade, the 1928-S is actually far more elusive than the
better-known 1928 Peace dollar. This Gem 1928-S is one of only 46
so graded at PCGS (compared to more than 200 of the 1928), with a
single MS66 finer (8/10).From The Helen Gates Kirk Collection.(Registry values: N4719)
