Description
1933 Pedley-Ryan Dollar, HK-824, MS61 NGC. Silver, 38.1 mm. The elusive Type Three variety (no date or 430 GRAINS on the reverse). Hibler-Kappen report in their 1963 treatise on so-called dollars that "fewer than 85 pieces were struck" of the HK-824 variety of Pedley-Ryan dollars. That minuscule production figure jibes perfectly with the NGC Census Report, which indicates that only 15 examples have been graded at all levels (8/07). When issued, the investment firm of Pedley-Ryan sold these large, one ounce rounds at the cost of three for a dollar and they were redeemable at the prevailing market value of silver. The public sale of these pieces was Pedley-Ryan's attempt to make a convenient market in silver and increase its popularity as a medium for speculation. The slug in this lot is lightly toned with a few scattered abrasions, commensurate with the assigned grade. Census: 2 in 61, 8 finer (8/07).Coin Index Numbers: (PCGS# 661050)
