Losbeschreibung

Lightly toned in mottled sandy-gold iridescence, both sides exhibit full mint luster in a smooth satin texture. Boldly to sharply struck overall. Just under 2 million silver dollars were struck at the San Francisco Mint in 1935, which was the highest mintage of any issue from the 1930s. Most of these coins followed the trend of previous years and were placed in storage, only to be released by regional banks in 1949 and 1950. There was little numismatic interest in this issue at either its debut or later release, and the conditional rarity of the 1935-S was underappreciated until more recent times. While it is readily available in lower Mint State grades up through Choice, in Gem and above it is remarkably scarce. For collectors assembling an advanced set of Peace dollars this is certainly an important offering.
