JEDl New Member United States 3 Posts	Posted 04/24/2015 12:41 pm Trying to do some research on this coin. My Red Book only shows the prices for 1921 high relief. Does that mean that all the 1921 Peace dollars are in high relief? Report this Post to the Staff

GoldenIslesCoins Valued Member United States 194 Posts	Posted 04/24/2015 12:48 pm High relief has to do with the way the Die was made. The 1921 Peace are ALL made in High Relief and look much different than all other Peace dollars from 1922-1935. The Hair in the center of the coin sticks up (higher) than on the others. Does that help ? Report this Post to the Staff
SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 04/24/2015 1:34 pm High Relief can only be achieved by making the die that way and then striking it properly. The 1921 was the ideal but it couldn't be struck reliably or stacked easily. That's why they changed the dies to lower relief. Report this Post to the Staff
