1922 $1 VAM 1F Field Break AU55 认证号24421089, PCGS号133736

1922 Peace Silver Dollar PCGS AU55 VAM 1F Field Break Top 50. Purchased 11/15/2023 at eBay for Connor for $103.13 total ($99 bid + $4.13 shipping) in 3-bid auction. This rare die variety on the 1922 Peace Dollar is one of the most popular ('Top 50") and well-recognized among VAM die variety collectors. There is a giant die crack on the reverse, above the word "Dollar", which crosses several rays in the background. This "late die state" (LDS) is readily visible to the naked eye and most desirable. At time of purchase, the PCGS retail price was $225 in AU55, so this was a bargain for just $103.13. Connor's conservative maximum bid was $115 total. At time of purchase, the PCGS census recorded only 163 total known examples graded at PCGS, of which only 60 were higher graded than this AU55 coin. The coin has some small black tarnish spots, and has a "hazy" luster.
