1926-S Peace Silver Dollar. MS-66 (PCGS).This is an exceptionally well produced and preserved coin in a San Francisco Mint Peace dollar. Boldly, if not sharply struck throughout, the hair tresses over Libertys ear are particularly noteworthy for their crispness of detail. As well, we note an uncommon degree of separation between the feathers at the junction of the eagles wing and leg on the reverse. Vibrantly lustrous with a silky smooth texture, the vivid reddish-gold and orange-copper iridescence that blankets both sides further enhances already memorable eye appeal. Although the 1926-S is the most plentiful S-mint Peace dollar in Gem Mint State after only the 1935-S, the issue is seldom offered in grades above MS-64. With only five coins certified finer at PCGS, the significance of this lovely MS-66 for the advanced Peace dollar enthusiast cannot be overstated.
