Historical Significance

First minted in 1921, the Peace Dollar marked the end of the Morgan Dollar era and was created to honor the peace achieved after World War I. The series was minted from 1921 to 1928 and again in 1934 and 1935, making it one of the shortest silver dollar series in U.S. history. Anthony de Francisci's design was inspired by the Statue of Liberty, giving Lady Liberty a bold and familiar appearance. The reverse eagle rests peacefully, grasping an olive branch—a powerful symbol of peace and hope.
