Why is it so expensive?
- High Grade: MS67 indicates a near-flawless coin according to the Professional Coin Grading Service (PCGS) standards. This signifies exceptional preservation with minimal wear and tear.
- Limited Availability at High Grades: While the 1924 Peace Dollar itself is a common date, finding them in MS67 condition is much rarer. This scarcity contributes to the value.
- PQ Approved Designation: PQ signifies the coin passed PQ Approved’s strict standards for quality, potentially indicating higher future value and liquidity compared to non-PQ coins.
- CAC Certification: The Coin Authentication Company (CAC) certification adds another layer of authenticity and credibility to the coin, potentially increasing trust and value.
