1927-S Peace Silver Dollar. MS-65+ (PCGS). CAC.As one of the best struck, finest certified 1927-S Peace dollars that we have handled in recent memory, the importance of this coin for advanced specialists in this series can hardly be overstated. The detail to both sides is virtually full, in fact, with even the hair curls over Libertys ear and the feathers at the junction of the eagles wing and leg crisply delineated. Luster is silky smooth in appearance with a billowy satin texture. Lightly toned around the peripheries, especially on the obverse, this is an enchanting premium Gem that will please even the most discerning Peace dollar enthusiast.Examples of this low mintage, 866,000-piece issue were considered plentiful in the coin market of old, thanks to the release of thousands of examples from storage in the San Francisco Mint during the 1940s and 1950s. By the early 1970s, however, the coins had been widely dispersed with Mint State survivors recognized as scarce by contemporary numismatists. The distribution of the LaVere Redfield hoard beginning in 1976 changed the situation, but only temporarily. Today, the 1927-S remains a key date Peace dollar, especially in sharply struck Gem Uncirculated, as here.
