Peace Silver Dollars are some of the rarest coins minted in the last century and are valuable because of their rich history and high silver content.
After the end of World War I, silver prices began to fall and on May 9, 1921, Congress passed legislation requiring the release of a new Silver Dollar that would have "an appropriate design commemorative of the termination of the war between the Imperial German Government and the Government of the People of the United States." Congress adjourned without approving the new coin's design, so production of Morgan Silver Dollars was restarted until the new design was created. After a competition between a small group of the nation's best medalists, Anthony de Francisci, a young Italian immigrant, emerged victorious with his design of Lady Liberty modeled after his wife.
And, with the price of silver being at a recent 5-year high, these coins now hold great value in their heavy silver content. In recent times, the precious metal market has even held its value over the stock market.
