High end AU58 would be my guess.

Turns out they used proof dies to strike business coins during the short run of these high relief 21s. From what I can tell is that the value is no different than the rest of them. They are just struck nicer. This was very confusing to me when I was comparing coins for an idea of grade. I thought that with better details it would be graded higher, but that's not the case at all. A ms60 or au58 struck by proof dies vs business dies are graded the same and are valued the same. This is what I'm getting out of the info I've read at least. I did find that PCGS has some graded as such, but very few. Only 1 au58 is listed and the value is the same as any 1921 Peace dollar graded at au58. Correct me if I'm wrong or missing anything. Edited by Chip Schleichard

For the 1921 Peace dollar there are two types of proofs the satin proof and the matte proof. These proof have a value much greater than a business MS strike. The 1921 satin proof has some controversy because there are no mint records of a satin proof. The satin proof was not discovered until 1975 by Walter Breen and a number of deceptive business strikes appear to have been struck from the same dies. NGC certifies the satin proof and PCGS has not certified any satin proofs. Edited by Slider23

Just curious.. How do you grade a coin on luster if it's been struck by matte or satin proof dies?
Maybe It's just me, but far as eye appeal I don't care so much for the shiny stuff. Well, except for gold coins, I would want to see it with some shine. /:

AU58 dipped, the clouds around the R and T make me think that it was lightly cleaned/rubbed etc.

Came out on the high end of what I guessed it would be. A nice coin anyway you look at it!
Thanks for following up with pics and the grading results.

It's received a very full strike. It has better eye appeal than many 64s I've traded.
