Well, I would say don't certify anyway. That is still AG 03. That does seem like a D mintmark.

The only thing is, that would then seem to be from a practical standpoint the lowest grade you might be able to get certified for a D (or S, for that matter) Peace dollar - it would take only the slightest bit more wear for the mint mark to be no longer discernable.

Well yes, but I saw a PCGS AG 03 sell for like $30 on ebay. Don't waste your money on grading fees. |

A bit more obverse wear would get it to Poor 1 (pocket piece the obverse and cover the reverse to prevent wear) -- right now Fair 2 obverse / poor reverse
Yup, she's a D mint 1922.

Quote:I saw a PCGS AG 03 sell for like $30 on ebay. I looked up the NGC population report for the 1922-D, and only 4 have ever been certified in the Poor to About Good range (frustratingly, they don't break down that number among the three grades covered). So you'd think such would be more desirable, but the market is what it is regardless of how much you might tout a piece's "rarity".... Quote:

IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."
