I've been going through a coin collection I have. I don't know if this coin is worth much?   *** Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. *** |

Nice coin. Per Red Book value it's worth $50 in MS-60 and $95 in MS-63, so it's probably in that range. It's highly improbable to me it would grade higher, I don't see a point in sending it to a TPG (professional grading company) then. Now note the catalog values are kind of inflated so you could sell it for maximum $75-80 IMO. |

It is circulated, too much wear on high points, feathers, hair, rim and digits, so based on poor focusing is hard to get exact. Let's say its XF50, it may be "valued" by RedBook at a set limit but you won't actualize it upon resale. Silver melt is under $15-16, see these go at auction for around $22 +fees (@$29 total) in that condition.  |

A Peace dollar is considered a Classic Coin, so I moved your post to the appropriate section for the proper attention.  |

I just can't get a handle on this one from the pics, especially being sideways.

MS63 tops, some light bag/roll rub not indicative of circulation, luster is muted. Not "BU" but still Uncirculated.

For a grade, I would think MS-63.

MS 65 could be 66 or better. I don't see any marks. I see a lot of Peace dollars with frost, just not that undisturbed. Really unusual to have a coin this mark free if it was banging with other heavy coins in a bag. I say it is worth $1500-2000 or so. Initially I put up the price for a 1922-P which sells for $500. The 1922-S minted in San Francisco is very scarce in grades higher than MS64. You should have this graded by PCGS. Really clean coin.

Coin looks dead. No way 65 or even 64.  Edited by Coinfrog

The coin is frosted suggesting a late state die which is obscuring the coin's luster, but it is unquestionably uncirculated and largely mark-free. Looks well-struck too.
