History: The Peace Dollar holds a special place in American coinage history, minted from 1921 to 1935. Designed by Anthony de Francisci, it was created to commemorate the end of World War I and promote a message of peace. The coin's obverse features the profile of Liberty with a radiant crown of rays, while the reverse depicts a majestic eagle perched on a rock, clutching an olive branch—a universal symbol of peace. Initially, the design faced criticism for its high relief, which caused production issues. However, modifications were made to flatten the relief in 1922, making it more practical for mass production.
