Owner's Description

This 1922-D Peace Dollar is extremely bold for the type, a Full Strike, with richly textured, highly lustrous, and barely toned surfaces. A hint of golden patina appears in a diagonal streak over the obverse portrait, otherwise the surfaces impart a snow-white appearance, attesting to the coins originality and the reason for the NGC "Star" rating. Roger W. Burdette specifically features this coin in his Guide Book of Peace Dollars illustrating a picture of the obverse on page 194 and stating: "One of the more prominent examples was part of the Robert Moreno Collection and was graded by NGC at MS-67*, denoting superior eye appeal and is given to very few coins from each issue. It has an interesting toning streak across the obverse, and is technically superior with a strong strike and virtually no visible marks." Die cracks are prominently displayed on the upper and lower obverse, and are a common, almost diagnostic feature of this issue. One minute abrasion is noted on Liberty's neck just below her hairline. An exceptionally appealing Superb Gem specimen. It is one of only 16 MS-67's graded by NGC, and the only 67 boasting a "Star" classification, making it the "Top-Pop" for the 1922-D possessing a deep history and Pedigree. This coin last appeared in a Heritage Auction in April 2006 and has been tucked away in private collections ever since.
