The 1924 Peace Dollar is a common date, nearly on par with the 1925 in terms of overall mintage, but not nearly as common as the 1922 and 1923. Collectors will have no difficulty finding a high-grade example of this date. Most of the certified Mint State examples fall into the MS-64 category, followed closely by the MS-63 category. Even Gems are relatively common, especially in MS-65, and the big drop-off in the population comes at the MS-67 level. Luster on the 1924 Peace Dollar ranges from soft, frosty (almost granular surfaces) to a bright, flashy luster. Generally, the strike is good, with none of the weakness associated with coins from the Denver and San Francisco mints (especially the latter). The overall eye appeal and above-average quality of the 1924 Peace Dollar make it an excellent choice for type collectors.
According to the June 1934 issue of The Numismatist (p. 416), collectors could still purchase Uncirculated 1924 Peace Dollars for "the face value of the coins and an amount sufficient to cover the mail charrges by first-class mail."
However, in this instance, not quite MS+++ as advertised. In my professional, numismatic opinion, it rates perhaps an MS-62, owing to an original die cast, slightly yellowish hue. Of course, that's still GR8888, all things considered. .. The high definition detail nearly makes up for it, but this type of coin does not lend itself to photography. In other words, if you're taking HD photos in an endeavor to sell it, it is NOT very 'photogenic.'

This was in good condition. It was a nice addition to my collection. These are great because they have a silver value and a historic value. I give these out as rewards when I catch my employees doing something extraordinary.

It's only for personal appreciation and a significant year to my family! The study of the entire series of US Peace Dollars could keep one occupied for a very long time. For example the lady on the obverse side of the dollar was named Ellen. She was much prettier I'm happy to say than the poor as in a sympathetic way appearance of her portrayal on the coin itself. This brief synopsis of the the years 1921-1935 production of these Peace Dollars I hope would encourage and enhance the fine art of proper coin collecting. And thanks for allowing this review of this item purchased on Ebay.
Great addition to my collection. One of the Peace years that I was missing.
