NGC Certifies A Peace Dollar Double<br />

Struck With 2nd Strike 80% Off-Center<br />

by Mike Byers<br />

Double Struck Peace<br />

Dollars are extremely<br />

rare and are highly<br />

coveted by mint error collectors<br />

and dealers. This exciting double<br />

struck mint error has a second<br />

strike that was 80% off-center.<br />

The positioning of the second<br />

strike, as well as the design<br />

that shows (part of the<br />

face and neck) makes<br />

this Peace Dollar as<br />

visual and dramatic<br />

as ever.<br />

NGC recently certified and<br />

graded this coin, which was in a<br />

major collection for many years. It<br />

has since changed hands and has<br />

been placed in another collection<br />

of spectacular and unique major<br />

mint errors.<br />

There is no design<br />

on the reverse of the<br />

second strike since a<br />

blank planchet was in<br />

the collar between this<br />

coin and the reverse die.<br />
