Finding Mint State 1924 Peace Silver Dollar Value

A significant difference in value is attributed to an uncirculated 1924-S Peace silver dollar compared to a slightly worn example. Judging the differences in condition requires a very close look at the surfaces of your coin. In the strictest sense 'Uncirculated" is without any wear, it is this coin that is highly valued.

Detecting any wear to a coin starts by examining its mint luster, a delicate element imparted to the surface during the striking process. Luster is comprised of minute flow lines of metal, radiating from the center to the rims, giving the newly minted coin its brilliance.

You can spot any breaks in luster by slowly tipping your coin side to side under a single source of light, a few inches from a desk lamp works well. It may take a minute to pick up the subtleness, but as the coin moves luster forms bands of brightness from one rim straight through the center to the opposite rim. These "bands" rotate as the coin moves, and if complete indicates the uncirculated condition.

Pictured is an uncirculated silver dollar, the entire surface displaying luster. Next to it is one with trace amounts of wear. Rotating the lightly circulated coin under a light detects mint luster as well, however it is lacking on the upper most parts of the design. First to show signs of wear are Liberty's neck and eyebrow, rays of the tiara and tops of lettering.

Take your time, use a magnifying glass, try inspecting some of the newer looking coins in your pocket change, the "aha" moment will come.

Peace Silver Dollar Fine Condition

Fine: Moderate wear leaving areas with a flattened appearance is typical of a 1924 Peace dollar in "fine" condition. Obvious wear has leveled the once rounded cheek and neckline of Miss Liberty. A smoothness and flatting of the once rounded hair behind the flowing curls is a good indication of this grade.

Peace Silver Dollar Good Condition
