1921 Peace Dollar

The 1921 Peace Silver Dollar is one of the nicest examples of silver dollars the United States has minted and came about thanks to the Pittman Act of 1918, which melted millions or Morgan silver dollars in support of the British and American war effort during WWI. The coin was designed by Anthony de Francisci and the portrait of the liberty face on the 1921 Peace silver dollar was modeled after his wife.

The high relief style of the 1921 Peace Silver dollar allows it to stand out as one of the more unique designs for United States silver dollars. Even in the worst condition, the 1921 Peace silver dollar can carry a premium above the rest of the common silver dollars in the Peace series and, in much higher conditions on the coin grading scale of 1-70, the 1921 Peace silver dollar can be worth several hundred dollars.

If you are lucky enough to discover a 1921 Peace silver dollar that would grade at an MS-65 or higher, it could be worth one thousand dollars or more. Part of the reason for the rarity of the 1921 Peace silver dollar is the high relief minting of the coin. The United States mints moved away from this design in 1922 after merchants complained that the coins were difficult to stack, thereby making them difficult to count in an efficient manner when in the middle of a transaction.

So, although the high relief design of the 1921 Peace silver dollar added to the overall aesthetic beauty of the coin, the functionality of the coin made it difficult to work with. Another reason for the rarity of the 1921 Peace silver dollar was that minting of the 1921 Peace silver dollar didn’t begin until the executive order was signed, just after Christmas, 1921. Production officially began of the 1921 Peace silver dollar on December 28th, 1921, allowing just enough time over the next three days to produce close to a million specimens of the numismatic treasure that is the 1921 Peace silver dollar.

What inspired me to go to NV Coin and Jewelry was I was an ad on the TV for the shop. I was not too sure about going to NV Coin and Jewelry to sell my jewelry because I have been to many other pawn shops but haven’t found a good deal for my jewelry. After I went to Nevada Coin and Jewelry it was a big relief for me selling my jewelry for a good price.

My wife cashed in some coins and we got top dollar. We have sold to others before but no more, we found a real professional store in Nevada Coin & Jewelry. “Thank You”

I am a brazilian and had the chance to deal with Nevada Coin. I was there to sell some gold coins and they paid me the best price I could fetch in Las Vegas. They are professional, courteous and trustworthy. Before visiting their premises I got a tentative appraisal by phone which I found reasonable. In the shop the attendant offered to approach the manager to get me a (gasp) BETTER price. Do yourself a favor and don’t bother talking to their rude and unprofessional competitors. They will treat you like a moron and quote prices accordingly. For Nevada Coin, five Stars all the way.

Guilherme

Always a good experience here! Definitely the place in town I enjoy buying coins from, and I’d recommend them to anybody. Helpful staff, reasonable prices, and wide selection.

Daniel B.

The staff are quick at work but not too quick to make you feel pressured into buying items or selling your items. They teach you about the items and tell you if they have use for your items or not. If they don’t have use for your items they call other places to see if they have a use for the items. Great staff!

Ramon

We were really pleased with the help that AJ gave us concering our gold coins and watches. I don’t think we could have received a better deal anywhere. All of the personnel at Nevada Coin & Jewelry were very professional. We will recommend them to our friends.

Dean & Judy

A.J. and Robert are so friendly and make it so you have the best deal with the items you bring them. They have so much knowledge about all the items they have in their shop and they like to teach others about what they know…

Been living in Vegas for many years and never had to sell or hock any of my items unfortunately as luck would have it that day did eventually find me and let me tell you is it a tough racket to find a decent place out here to do business with. Pawn shops are a joke and could care less about their customers and treated me like another number. Tried and tried and place after place the numbers where all over the place. Finally decided to go to these guys and I’m glad I did. They tested each piece of my jewelry right in from of me with some kind of xray machine. They explained how they calculated the price and paid me cash on the spot. Avery was very helpful and didn’t mind answering my questions and explaining what they do. I left feeling I got the best price for my items. I would recommend them to anyone looking to sell their jewelry.
