The 1923 Peace Dollar MS-63 NGC (Binion Collection) is a desirable coin from the United States Mint’s iconic Peace Dollar series, introduced to commemorate peace following World War I. Minted in 1923, this issue is struck in 90% silver and 10% copper, containing approximately 0.7734 troy ounces of pure silver, combining intrinsic value with historical significance.
This example is graded MS-63 (Mint State 63) by the Numismatic Guaranty Company (NGC), indicating an uncirculated coin with strong mint luster and moderate contact marks typical for the grade, while still maintaining attractive overall eye appeal.
A key highlight of this coin is its Binion Collection pedigree, meaning it originates from the famous Binion’s Horseshoe Casino 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, while the reverse displays a bald eagle perched on a rock with the word “PEACE”, symbolizing stability and optimism in the post-war era.
With its NGC certification, Binion Collection provenance, and classic design, the 1923 Peace Dollar MS-63 is a valuable addition to any U.S. coin collection or precious metals portfolio.
