The 1922-D Peace Silver Dollar is a highly sought-after issue in the historic Peace Dollar series. Struck at the Denver Mint, the 1922-D represents the first full year of production for the Peace Dollar series following the high-relief 1921 issue. As a classic American silver dollar, the 1922-D Peace Dollar remains a popular and essential addition to any numismatic collection.
Composed of 90% silver and 10% copper, this classic silver dollar contains approximately 0.7734 troy ounces of pure silver. The obverse features the profile of Lady Liberty wearing a radiant crown, with the word "LIBERTY" above and the date "1922" below. The reverse displays a bald eagle resting on a rock with an olive branch, symbolizing peace, accompanied by the inscriptions "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," "E PLURIBUS UNUM," and "ONE DOLLAR." The "D" mint mark of the Denver Mint is located on the reverse below the word "ONE." Designed by Anthony de Francisci, the Peace Silver Dollar was created to commemorate the restoration of peace following World War I.
