The 1922 Peace Dollar MS-65 NGC (Binion Collection) is a premium collectible from the United States Mint’s iconic Peace Dollar series, introduced to commemorate peace following World War I. Minted in 1922, the coin is struck in 90% silver and 10% copper, containing approximately 0.7734 troy ounces of pure silver, combining intrinsic value with numismatic significance.
This example is graded MS-65 (Mint State 65) by the Numismatic Guaranty Company (NGC), placing it in Gem Uncirculated condition. Coins at this grade display strong mint luster, sharp strike quality, and minimal surface marks, resulting in excellent overall eye appeal.
A key highlight is its Binion Collection pedigree, indicating that the coin originates from the famous Binion’s Horseshoe Casino silver hoard in Las Vegas. Coins from this collection are highly sought after due to their unique history and association with one of the most well-known silver hoards in U.S. numismatics.
The obverse features the elegant Lady Liberty portrait designed by Anthony de Francisci, symbolizing freedom and optimism. The reverse displays a bald eagle perched on a rock with the word “PEACE”, representing stability and hope in the post-war era.
With its Gem MS-65 grade, NGC certification, and notable Binion Collection provenance, the 1922 Peace Dollar is a standout addition to any U.S. coin collection or precious metals portfolio.
