• Mintage of 1,632,000: A Final-Year Rarity: Struck at the San Francisco Mint, this was the last Peace Dollar before the series' hiatus, making it a key collectible.

• AU/BU Condition: Nearly a Century of Preservation – Strong luster and sharp details keep Lady Liberty and the eagle’s design crisp, a testament to its enduring beauty.

• 90% Silver – A Piece of History: A true relic of America’s silver coinage era, offering both historical significance and intrinsic value for collectors and investors alike.

The 1928-S Peace Dollar holds a special place in American numismatic history as the final Peace Dollar struck before the series took an unexpected hiatus until 1934. Designed by Anthony di Francisci, this coin was originally intended to commemorate the end of World War I, replacing the Morgan Dollar and symbolizing a new era of peace. Its obverse features a stunning depiction of Lady Liberty, her wind-swept hair embodying the nation’s resilience and hope for the future. The reverse showcases a majestic bald eagle, perched atop a rock while clutching an olive branch, a timeless representation of peace and strength.

Struck at the San Francisco Mint, the 1928-S Peace Dollar had a relatively low mintage of 1,632,000, making it one of the more sought-after issues in the series. While the 1928-P Peace Dollar had an even lower mintage at 360,649, making it one of the rarest and most expensive Peace Dollars, the 1928-S remains a far more accessible option for collectors. Since no Denver-minted Peace Dollars were struck in 1928, the 1928-S stands as the only option from this historic final production year before the break, further solidifying its importance in numismatic history.

This particular example is in Almost Uncirculated to Brilliant Uncirculated (AU/BU) condition, meaning it retains strong luster, sharp details, and only minimal signs of wear despite being nearly a century old. The level of preservation on this coin is remarkable, allowing collectors to appreciate the intricate artistry of di Francisci’s design as it was meant to be seen. The 90% silver composition further enhances its appeal, offering both historical significance and intrinsic value to investors and numismatists alike.

Owning a 1928-S Peace Dollar is more than just acquiring a silver coin—it’s holding a piece of America’s post-war optimism and economic evolution. Whether you are completing a Peace Dollar set or simply looking for a standout addition to your collection, this final-year issue is a must-have, offering an affordable yet historically significant piece of early 20th-century coinage.
