The 1927 Peace Dollar MS-62+ NGC is part of the United States Mint’s iconic Peace Dollar series, introduced to commemorate peace following World War I. Minted in 1927, this issue is a popular late-1920s date within the series.
The coin is composed of 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-62+ (Mint State 62 Plus) by the Numismatic Guaranty Company (NGC), indicating a coin that is above average for the MS-62 grade, with slightly better eye appeal, stronger luster, and fewer marks than typical examples at this level.
In MS-62+ condition, the coin is uncirculated, displaying full design details along with moderate contact marks typical for the grade, while maintaining pleasing overall eye appeal.
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–World War I era.
With its NGC certification, “+” grade designation, and classic design, the 1927 Peace Dollar is a solid addition to any U.S. coin collection or precious metals portfolio, especially for collectors seeking slightly higher-quality Mint State examples.
