Peace Silver Dollar 1935

Price: $110.65

Following the war, there was widespread sentiment for issuance of a coin that would celebrate and commemorate the restoration of peace. The American Numismatic Association played a key role in fostering this proposal. At the same time, the U.S. Mint found itself facing the need to start producing millions of silver dollars. That need grew out of the Pittman Act, a law enacted in 1918 at the urging of, and clearly benefiting, silver-mining interests. The aesthetically pleasing "Peace" Silver Dollars are a beloved symbol of U.S. coin history and have long been a very popular item with coin collectors. It is the last dollar coin minted for general circulation with a silver content of 90%. Future silver dollars would be minted with a considerably lower silver content. Accordingly, many collectors treasure the Peace Dollar as the last "true" silver dollar. Now, through AMERICAN MINT, you can own this beautiful 14-coin set, featuring one Peace Dollar from every year of minting (1921-1935). Your coins come in a handy booklet filled with interesting facts.
