Hello! I was donated the attached 1921 Peace dollar High Relief by my grandmother almost 40 years ago. It is just today that I started looking at its worth. Please find attached some pictures. I'd be curious to read what you think of its potential grade! Thanks!

What if it hadn't been cleaned?

Not cleaned I would say $350, maybe $400+ if third party graded. 1921 Peace dollars are very much in demand but there are enough available that one can be selective.

Highly cleaned/polished.
I wouldn't pay $100 for this.

If this was any other time, I would say $100, but honestly the 1921 is in such high demand that I still think $200 is a reasonable price. Not that I would buy this but some people might.

Too bad it has been cleaned. If I were looking for one, something like this I would skip right over. Seeing sold on ebay for 125.00-200.00.

 to the CCF I agree it has been cleaned and likely even polished. As such it's a damaged coin. It is however a key date for the series and will always have some value to someone.

if you post any other coins please crop them i agree with AU details (cleaned). as stated the coin still has value but is not worth sending in for grading. folks here are pretty much as accurate as the TPG's

Hello! Thank you all for your answers. Here are more pictures. Doing my best with an iPhone :) The legend in the family goes that my grandmother's uncle was working for the Philadelphia Mint. He gave this coin to her as it was uncirculated, because of a defect. I have looked closely and couldn't find it.

By the way, it wasn't polished, just cleaned.

That high shine spot on the neck screams polishing. Take the image so the full coin shows edge to edge, all around.
