1928 $1 MS62 NGC

The 1928 $1 Peace Dollar holds a celebrated position in American numismatics as the lowest-mintage issue of the entire Peace Dollar series, with only 360,649 coins struck, a fraction of the production seen in other years. This extremely limited output has cemented its reputation as a key date, highly sought after by collectors building both circulated and mint state sets. Early misconceptions — including the belief that the 1928 issue may have been struck for ceremonial purposes — have only deepened its historical mystique and collector appeal. A significant proportion of surviving examples were preserved in uncirculated condition, resulting in a larger share of high-grade coins compared to other dates. This near-Gem specimen exemplifies the date’s allure, showcasing exceptional toning and superior surface preservation. The obverse is adorned with soft silver-gray fields accented by iridescent peripheral toning in vivid shades of magenta, teal-green, royal blue, and golden yellow, with a subtle sunlit gold wash at the base. Liberty’s portrait is sharply struck, and the radiating crown lines are crisply defined, set against smooth, lustrous fields that enhance the coin’s visual depth. The reverse mirrors this appeal with warm golden-brown hues near the periphery, intricate definition in the eagle’s feathers, and a balanced satin glow across the fields. With minimal signs of handling and vibrant original color, this example represents an elite opportunity for advanced collectors seeking a cornerstone Peace Dollar that combines historical significance, aesthetic beauty, and enduring numismatic importance.
