- 1923-D Peace Silver Dollar. MS-66 (NGC).
Satin to softly frosted surfaces are fully untoned with a bright, brilliant-white appearance. Fully struck, typical of a Denver Mint Peace dollar, but remarkably smooth for an issuing Mint whose contributions to this series are often characterized by heavily abraded coins. Peripheral die cracks on the obverse are as made and, again, are typical for many D-Mint Peace dollars. The Colorado facility used very strong striking pressure that explains the aforementioned superior detail on the present coin, but also early die breakage for the Denver Mint Peace dollar series as a whole.
An underrated condition rarity, the 1923-D is among the rarer Denver Mint Peace dollars in high grades. Most Mint State survivors are heavily abraded, and often the abrasions are quite sizable and individually distracting (reeding marks, scrapes, nicks, etc.). Granular luster can also be a problem for this issue, although that feature is kept to a minimum on the present example. Worthy of strong bids as this coin is superior to the typical Mint State 1923-D Peace dollar, and even to others graded MS-66 by NGC.
Provenance: From the Pittstown Collection.
NGC Census: 27; 6 finer (MS-66+ finest).
