1926 One Dollar MS Values
Details
The mintage dropped drastically at the Philadelphia Mint for Peace Dollars in 1926 to under 2 million. Nevertheless, this date remains nothing more than a type coin. Luster and strike are incredible for this amazing type coin issue. Common and very affordable in all grades up through the gem level with MS66 being scarce and any finer being a condition rarity.
Obverse: Portrait of a crowned Liberty featuring the word LIBERTY at the top periphery. The motto IN GOD WE left of Liberty's neck and TRUST to the right. The date in centered at the bottom.
Reverse: Perched eagle standing on a rock facing the right with UNITED STATES oF AMERICA and E PLURIBUS UNUM at the top periphery. The denomination of ONE DOLLAR left and right of the eagle's tail and the word PEACE at the bottom. Mintmark, if any, appears below the word ONE on the left side.
