1923-D Peace Silver Dollar. MS-66+ (PCGS).

Beautiful frosty surfaces are toned in speckled reddish-copper and cobalt blue iridescence that is boldest at the reverse border. This is a sharply to fully struck example, as usual for the issue, and exceptionally well preserved. Peripheral die cracks on the obverse are as made and typical for many D-Mint Peace dollars, the Colorado facility using very strong striking pressure that resulted in superior detail, but also early die breakage. An underrated condition rarity, the 1923-D is among the rarer Denver Mint Peace dollars in high grades. Most Mint State survivors are heavily abraded, and often the abrasions are quite sizable and individually distracting (reeding marks, scrapes, nicks, etc.). Granular luster can also be a problem for this issue. This premium quality Gem is truly a memorable example -- an undeniable strike and condition rarity that belongs in a top-ranked Peace dollar set on the PCGS Set Registry.
