Twelve (12) 1922 Peace Silver Dollars Mixed Mint Group .900 Fine Silver - Group of twelve 1922 Peace Silver Dollars, including Philadelphia and Denver Mint examples (as marked on holders), struck in .900 fine silver, each containing 0.7734 troy ounces of pure silver (total silver content approximately 9.28 troy ounces). The 1922 issue represents the first full-scale production year of the Peace dollar series following the brief 1921 high-relief debut. Mintages were substantial (Philadelphia: 51,737,000; Denver: 15,063,000; San Francisco: 17,475,000), making the date readily available in circulated grades but consistently liquid due to strong silver demand and series popularity. These coins display typical strike characteristics for 1922, including occasional softness at Liberty?s hair above the ear and at the eagle?s breast feathers. Surfaces range from medium silver-gray to darker patina, with several pieces showing scattered spotting or peripheral toning consistent with long-term storage in 2x2 holders. Circulation wear is evident across the group, though rims remain solid and major damage is not observed. This is a substantial near-ten-ounce silver lot offering both intrinsic bullion weight and classic early 20th-century U.S. dollar appeal. Condition: Mixed circulated grades, approximately Fine to About Uncirculated. Varied surface toning and spotting; honest wear throughout. Sold as a group.
