1928 S Silver Peace Dollar AU
Add a touch of early 20th-century American heritage to your collection with the 1928-S Silver Peace Dollar AU (About Uncirculated) — a stunning example of artistry, symbolism, and silver purity. Struck at the San Francisco Mint, this coin contains .900 silver and stands as one of the more challenging dates in the iconic Peace Dollar series, representing the optimism and strength of a nation recovering from war.
Designed by Anthony de Francisci, the Peace Dollar was introduced in 1921 to commemorate the end of World War I and the beginning of a new era of peace. Its obverse features a radiant portrait of Lady Liberty, modeled after de Francisci’s wife Teresa, symbolizing youthful hope and freedom. The reverse depicts a majestic bald eagle perched on a rock, clutching an olive branch — a timeless emblem of America’s pursuit of peace and stability.
The 1928-S issue was minted during a period of low silver coinage production, making it scarcer than most Peace Dollars. With only 1.63 million coins struck, this San Francisco Mint release has become a collector’s favorite due to its limited mintage and strong eye appeal.
