Synopsis

* 3rd Edition - you will find in this edition detailed and useful investing information on Peace and Morgan silver dollars which I have compiled from various free and not free sources (thereby saving you considerable time and effort) plus considerations on who to deal with when buying and selling your coins. *

The rich history of U.S. silver dollars goes back to 1794 with the introduction of the "Flowing Hair" dollar followed by the Draped Bust, Gobrecht and Trade silver dollars. But it is the Peace and Morgan silver dollars that have captured the attention of casual and not-so-casual silver coin investors.

The Peace silver dollar was minted as a peace commemorative coin to celebrate the end of the Great War (WW I). It replaced the popular Morgan silver dollar which ceased production in late 1921. Peace dollars were minted from late 1921 through 1928 and again in 1934 and 1935. Approximately 190,577,000 Peace dollars were minted during those 10 years. Many of the highest mintage (and least expensive) Peace dollars were struck between 1922 through 1926. You will find much more information on these and ALL Peace Dollars in this book.

Morgan silver dollars were minted continuously from 1878 through much of 1904. Minting of the Morgan dollar was suspended later in 1904 to conserve the amount of silver left in inventory. In 1921, production resumed in a big way with approximately 86,000,000 dollars minted making the 1921, 1921D and 1921S Morgans among the most common and least expensive to buy. And it isn’t only the latest dates that provide such opportunities. There are high mintage dates in the 1880s and 1890s which can provide the investor with a way to have and hold these historic coins without paying sky-high prices. Detailed information on ALL Morgan Dollars are contained in this book.

Discover important buying and selling information on rare, semi-rare and ordinary Peace and Morgan silver dollars plus sections on cleaning silver coins and basic coin grading. To help the reader better understand the various coin grades, a number of pictured examples are included plus a glossary of coin grading terms. Whether you 1) have Peace or Morgan silver dollars in your possession and want help in determining their value; 2) have decided to start investing in silver dollars and want to gain important knowledge before investing; or 3) have decided it is time to ramp up your purchase of these popular 90 percent silver coins - you will find this book a most helpful resource you will refer to again and again.
