1921 Peace Dollar

Rhoads Gold Silver & Coin

Batman fans will love this coin! The Peace Dollar is the coin that the villain Two-Face flipped in the comics and movie. So next time you watch Two-Face flip his coin, you will know it was the Peace Dollar.
The Peace Dollar was minted to commemorate a time to celebrate. It was born at the end of World War I and there was hope of peace with it's arrival. Miss Liberty graces the obverse and on the reverse is the noble portrait of the eagle warmed by the sun's rays.
The first Peace Dollar was minted in the final week of 1921. Printing lasted until 1928 and then not again until 1934 and 1935. It has a melt value of over $11 so don't spend at face value or you will be loosing money.
The designer of the Peace Dollar was an immigrant from Italy named Antonio de Francisci. The model for Miss Liberty was Teresa Cafarelli who, since childhood, had always dreamed of playing the part of Liberty in plays.
In case you didn't notice, the coin contains the words “In God We Trvst.” No, I didn't spell that wrong, that is how the coin displays the word. But the mint did not make a spelling error as one might assume. Rather, it is the Latin way to spell trust.
This is a beautiful coin that should be in every collection. Most coin stores will carry Peace Dollars. If you have any questions leave me a comment. The pictured Peace Dollar is available for an interested collector so drop me a message if you are looking for a 1921 in very fine condition.
