Peace Dollar Dates & Mintmarks
Every date and mintmark combination in the series: the 24 issues released between 1921 and 1935, plus the 1964-D, which was struck and then destroyed. All three published sources consulted agree on every issued date, so unlike the Morgan catalog there are no per-issue mintage disputes to flag here.
No prices, price guides, or population counts appear anywhere in this catalog. Coin Curator does not hold licensed data for any of those, so it publishes none. How we work.

Rank 1 is the lowest business-strike mintage in the series. Tiers are assigned from reported mintage alone: under 750,000 struck is a key date, under 2,500,000 a semi-key. The same thresholds apply to every series on this site, so tiers are comparable between them. That is a production measure, not a market judgement, and not a statement about how many survive.

Common questions
How many Peace dollar date and mintmark combinations are there?
24 were issued: 1921 through 1928 and 1934 through 1935, struck at Philadelphia, Denver, and San Francisco. This catalog carries 25 entries because it also documents the 1964-D, which was struck in 1965 and then destroyed without ever being released. Production stopped after 1928 when the Pittman Act silver requirement was met, and resumed briefly in 1934 and 1935.
Which Peace dollar has the lowest mintage?
The 1928 Philadelphia issue, at 360,649, is the lowest of any released Peace dollar and is the traditional series key. It comes with a twist worth knowing: the Mint announced in advance that the run would be limited, so an unusual share was saved at the time. The 1928 is therefore easier to find in mint state than several issues with far larger mintages, and the 1934-S is the harder coin in high grade despite being nearly three times as numerous.
Why does the Peace series have so few key dates compared to the Morgans?
Because Peace dollar mintages simply run higher. Coin Curator uses the same thresholds for every series so that tiers are comparable across the site: under 750,000 struck is a key date, under 2,500,000 a semi-key. Only the 1928-P clears the key-date bar among issued Peace dollars, where fifteen Morgan issues do. That is a real difference between the two series, not an artefact of the rule.
What is the 1964-D Peace dollar, and can you own one?
In May 1965 the Denver Mint struck 316,076 Peace dollars dated 1964. Within days they were reclassified as trial strikes and all were reported melted; Congress then banned silver dollar coinage for five years. No example is known in any public or private collection, and any that exists remains U.S. government property. PCGS has offered a standing $10,000 reward merely to examine an authentic one and has never paid it. Pieces sold as 1964-D Peace dollars are replicas or coins of other dates that have been altered.
Why do so many Peace dollars look poorly struck?
Peace dollars are notoriously softly struck, particularly the San Francisco issues of the 1920s. Flatness at the centre of Liberty's hair and on the eagle's feathers is often a striking characteristic rather than wear, and grading services account for it. Judge circulation wear on the cheek, the hair above the ear, and the eagle's shoulder, and compare against images of the same date rather than against a sharply struck coin from another year.
Does Coin Curator publish Peace dollar values?
No. This catalog carries U.S. Mint production figures, historical context, and documented varieties. It does not publish prices, valuations, price guides, or population and census counts, because Coin Curator does not hold licensed data for any of those. Pages link to the grading services' own certification lookups and to marketplace searches so you can check current evidence yourself.
