1927 Peace Dollar

The item is a Peace Dollar, a silver coin minted by the United States. Its obverse is clearly visible, featuring a left-facing profile of Lady Liberty, often referred to as 'Peace,' depicted with a radiate crown. The word 'LIBERTY' is visible above her head, curving along the rim, and the motto 'IN GOD WE TRVST' appears to her left and right below 'LIBERTY'. The minting year '1927' is prominently displayed at the bottom of the obverse. The coin exhibits a metallic silver-gray color, consistent with its composition of 90% silver and 10% copper, which was standard for these coins. In terms of condition, the coin appears to be in circulated condition, with noticeable wear on the high points of the design, such as Liberty's hair and the tips of the rays on her crown. There is a visible dark patina or toning developing along the edges and in some of the recessed areas of the design, which is common for older silver coins and can be a desirable feature for some collectors. No significant scratches, dents, or major dings are immediately apparent in the image, although closer inspection would be required to confirm this. The overall strike appears to be decent, with most of the design elements clearly discernible. The rim appears mostly intact, though some minor flattening might be present due to circulation. No specific mint marks are visible on the obverse, which indicates it would have been minted in Philadelphia, as the 'P' mint mark was not used on Peace Dollars. The reverse of the coin is not visible in the provided image. The coin's diameter is typically 38.1 mm with a weight of 26.73 grams. This particular coin belongs to the Art Deco period, characterized by its design elements.
