You just don't see Peace dollars with this kind of toning ... and much less a 1921 Peace, which are notorious for being softly struck through the centers, with this kind of hammered strike. This one, in addition to its obvious virtues, has the CAC approval as well. When a certain other dealer posted it on his website, I pounced instantly as I knew it would go VERY fast. He had multiple other offers on it ... There are, as expected, some minor marks hidden under the patina that preclude a Gem grade, but the eye appeal is intense. Enjoy!    Best Regards,  George

Yes, nice hair details, which would otherwise be the usual "flat" hair..

Looks pretty well struck up for a 1921 the high relief is a tough to find condition rarity in any well struck up coin of this year, this one has it in spades! Nice color too.

What are you guys talking about? That is a terrible looking coin! ....... OK, so I just lied. Forgive me. Hehe. Seriously, I'm in love with this coin. It has a "rusty" appearance, which I find irresistible. This is the nicest '21 Peace I have ever seen. So..... are you gonna give her a name? She deserves it!
