Description
A top-tier example of an already desirable type, this 1925 $1 Peace Dollar is certified PCGS MS67 and approved by CAC—placing it among the elite survivors of the Philadelphia issue. While 1925 is a more available date in lower Mint State, it becomes truly scarce at the MS67 level, where eye appeal, strike, and luster must align at an exceptional standard. Expect crisp details, bright satiny to semi-reflective luster, and minimal, well-hidden marks—attributes that make this coin visually arresting in hand. Typical coloration for the issue ranges from brilliant silver-white to softly toned rims with hints of champagne-gold or light dove-gray. Historical significance meets condition rarity. Struck to celebrate peace after World War I, Anthony de Francisci’s iconic design is at its best on well-made 1925 Philadelphia pieces, which often show strong hair and eagle feather definition. Contemporary reports note that Uncirculated 1925 Peace Dollars were still available from the U.S. Treasury at face value as late as 1934—yet few survive today with the near-flawless surfaces and booming luster demanded by MS67. For the advanced registry collector or the quality-focused type buyer, this is a quintessential high-end example.
