The 1922 is AU if only because it's picked up circulation dings. Terrific strike. Judging from the obverse, the 1926 has less wear than might appear; I think the toning is having an effect. These are all preliminary opinions. The first coin is a scan, and I suspect you might be pleasantly surprised by the luster when you see it.

I'm hoping these look even better in person too. I picked up the 22 because of how great the strike was and on the chance that it will have great luster when it arrives. Thankfully, I'mfinally able to start picking out some details such as these when buying. The "peace" on the 26 is about as strong as I have seen on an AU coin. In my beginner opinion it seems like that is one of the first things to get wiped out, especially the P and the E for whatever reason. Thanks for all of the opinions guys.

The first things I look at on a Peace dollar are the L - Y on the obverse and PEACE on the reverse. They'll tell me all I need to know about strike, which then makes it easier to decide if the hair and shoulder are actually worn and how much. These are both good ones. |

The 22 has some serious crows feet going on and a little hanging boogie

Not sure what that means? Good thing or bad thing?

I noticed that too... granny liberty!
'Tyler, what it is is ding damage in such a place as to be funny looking. Technically it's a bad thing because it's damage

Oh I get it now lol it does look like that. That makes my coin extra rare, I have the only Peace dollar featuring lady liberty as a senior citizen. If anyone wants to purchase it, it's for sale for 10,000. |
