Heres a couple of my newest ones. The 34 I had targeted for about a month and a half. The 24 I picked up on a whim. Guess the grades.

Peace dollars are tough, so take me with a grain of salt.

The '24 looks technically superior to the '34, although the '34 seems to present better eye appeal. Neither obverse is fully-struck, making the determination between AU and MS much more difficult. So, I concentrate on the reverses. The '24 needs a better pic of the reverse to be sure, but from what I can see I'm going to call it uncirculated.

1924: MS64
1934: MS63

Both conservatively graded. I could see either in 65 slabs if they're uncirculated.

I totally do not agree with SuperDave, here. But what do I know? I just have a basic idea of silver dollar grades.
1924 is a AU55, maybe MS 60
1934 is a MS 64

From the pics I'll go ms65 for the 1924 and ms64 for the 1934. Personally, I think the 1924 has far superior eye appeal. The toning is very pretty for a Peace dollar (especially the reverse) and I'm not surprised that you picked it up on a whim.......I really like it!

Peace dollars can be a bugger to grade because of weak strikes but I would give the 1924 an AU58.There's just some hair detail that I can't see that would make it MS.
I think the 1934 is MS,probably MS63 in my opinion.Beautiful.

Interesting replies...


Well...Hadley hit on it for the most part.

The 24 was bought as a weak 65. This coin confuses me a little.
This coin has a very nice reverse, really really clean fields, but really weak at the cheek and hair.
I bought the coin mainly for the great red/gold/pink color...it has good luster and looks very nice in hand.
(I will say..I would not be floored if this coin is AU58 with no bagmarks)

The 34 is one I feel really good about.
I shot the pics of this one with diffused light because it has too much luster.
It has a few spots on the reverse....but I think this coin goes MS65 easily.
I paid MS64 bid.


Thanks for the opinions you guys...
