1928-S Peace Silver Dollar. MS-65 (PCGS).A faint golden iridescence accents the complexion of this otherwise brilliant Gem. Comprehensive and satiny, the luster blankets the fields and devices without interruption, showcasing the superior preservation and softly cartwheeling at a tilt. This piece sits among the finest survivors know from this mintage of 1.6 million coins, and PCGS has certified only 5 coins finer through MS-66.<p>After only the 1925-S, the 1928-S is the rarest issue of this type at the Gem Mint State grade level. While the 1928-S as an issue has much better luster quality than the 1925-S, both often display poor striking detail with most examples blunt in the centers. Heavily abraded surfaces are also the norm for these conditionally challenging issues. These characteristics explain why the vast majority of 1928-S dollars extant grade no finer than MS-64. The offering of a certified MS-65, as here, represents a significant bidding opportunity in todays market and this coin is sure to sell for a strong bid.<p>PCGS# 7374. NGC ID: 257W.PCGS Population: 64; 5 finer.
