Description

The 1922 Peace Dollar - High Relief Sandblasted Antique Finish J-2018 is a special strike dollar struck at the Philadelphia Mint, part of the Peace Dollars 1921-1935 series. With a mintage of 8, this is an extremely rare issue — the lowest mintage among 8 mint variants, representing only less than 1% of total production. The obverse features a youthful Liberty facing left wearing a radiate crown, designed after sculptor Anthony de Francisci's wife Teresa and the reverse displays a bald eagle perched on a rock above the word PEACE, with rays of sunlight. The relief was lowered for mass production after the high-relief 1921 dies caused striking problems. Combined 1922 production across three mints exceeded 84 million — the highest in the series. Struck at the original U.S. Mint facility, in continuous operation since 1792. Auction record: $192,000 SP64 01-14-2019 Heritage Auctions. Struck in 90% silver, 10% copper, weighing 26.73 grams, 38.1 mm in diameter, with a reeded edge. Cataloged as PCGS #97382.
