Your 1922 is not the high relief matte one,look at the spikes and that's one way to tell

Sorry to say ... but
Two very common dollars that have been polished.
I have seen sets like this before and it is very common
for them to have polished coins.

It can be very disappointing when you find what you thought was worth thousands ... is only worth it's weight in silver.

Besides all else- you need to think of the probability that a company assembling sets, as the one you have, would have unintentionally included two very rare coins, in one set, no less!
Very very very unlikely.
Unfortunately, it seems that the OP already went ahead and wasted the submission costs. PCGS has got to stay in business....

Unfortunately you got tricked in my opinion. I would have not wasted any money on the silver dollars by sending them to PCGS. Both have been cleaned and are essentially worth about $30 for the pair. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

You got bamboozled. Both those coins are highly polished to resemble a prooflike coin. They are not even close to what a 1921 Zerbe Specimen Strike Morgan dollar looks like. You wasted your money sending them to PCGS. |

That's an interesting(Obsolete Coinage) sample display in the box.
I wasn't aware the 1921 morgan,1922 peace, along with walkers,franklins, merc's and buff's carried that designation.

I don't get where he got bamboozled. He said he picked them up at a garage sale. I am assuming for very cheap. He brought it to a dealer and the final offer was $12,000. Pretty crazy to refuse in my opinion, but anyway. He then sent them to be slabbed and graded properly. If they come back graded not in his favor, can't he just free them from the slab and go back to the dealer..
or have I missed something.
