Lot 1382
A 1921 to 1935-S Peace Dollar Set. Coins will grade VG to AU. This desirable series was struck to replace the 300-odd million Morgan dollars melted per the Pittman Act of 1918, which included in the bill language to have the silver replaced. The coins, once minted, served for the most part to back Silver Certificates which the Treasury Dept. had put into circulation. West of the Mississippi, silver dollars tended to remain in banks; people preferred the more convenient paper money. Lot of 24 coins.
Estimated Value $700 - 750.
