The typical 1923-S Peace Dollar is characterizerd by a poor strike, lackluster appearance, and excessive bagmarks. This is pretty typical of any S-Mint Peace Dollar, but especially so on the 1923-S. The PCGS Population Report reflects the poor quality of the 1923-S Peace Dollar, with the majority of those certified falling into the MS-63 grade level. A fair amount of MS-64 1923-S peace Dollars have been certified, but Gems are rare. Even in MS-65, this date approaches valkuations of five figures. As of this writing (11/8/2010), PCGS has certified only two 1923-S Peace Dollars in MS-66 and only a single example in MS-67. The value of these Gems is highly speculative, as none of them has appeared at auction since PCGS began keeping track of such things in 1994; one can only imagine the records that any one of these coins would set.
According to a notice in the June 1934 issue of The Numismatist (p. 416), collectors could still purchase Uncirculated 1923-S Peace Dollars for "the face value of the coins and an amount sufficient to cover the mail charrges by first-class mail."
I was tough to convince to get into peace $. These great examples have been encouraging to me, I am struggling to buy a lot of replacement coins in 2016. My best friend was stealing rolls and boxes while I was 24/7 with my wife's terminal illnesses. He would stuff things in the rolls for the weight. Put piles or regular coins mixed in the boxes. My lovely wire of 50 year passed in July. I found out the thefts August. Our entire savings of gold, silver, currency that we struggled for for 50 years is gone,

I purchased this coin as a gift for my daughter. Although not as valuable as a Morgan silver dollar, by the time she reaches my age, it will have increased in value. So, it can be used by her as an investment in the future. Stocks and bond fluctuate over time but silver coins maintain their valve over the long haul.
