1923 United States Peace Silver Dollar

This is a United States Peace Silver Dollar, dated 1923, designed by Anthony de Francisci. The coin's obverse features a profile of Lady Liberty facing left, wearing a crown of radiant spikes inspired by the Statue of Liberty. The legend 'LIBERTY' is struck along the top edge, and the motto 'IN GOD WE TRVST' (using the Latin spelling for the U) is positioned in the field. The coin is composed of 90% silver and 10% copper, with a standard diameter of 38.1 mm and a weight of 26.73 grams. Physically, this specimen exhibits significant circulation wear and environmental aging. The surface shows a deep, uneven brown and orange-tinted toning, suggesting long-term exposure to oxidation or sulfur-containing materials. There are notable abrasions and 'bag marks' across the cheek and neck of Liberty. The high points of the crown and hair show softening of detail, indicating a grade likely in the Good to Very Good range. The date '1923' is visible at the bottom. The edge appears reeded, though slightly worn. This coin represents the Roaring Twenties era and was minted as a commemorative of the peace following World War I.
