The value of a 1922 Liberty One Dollar coin, also known as a Peace Dollar, can vary significantly depending on its condition, mint mark, and any potential errors. Most 1922 Peace Dollars are worth between $25 and $39.
Here’s a breakdown based on mint mark and condition:
- Circulated condition: Generally worth slightly more than their melt value in silver, [according to Hero Bullion] [and Coin ID Scanner] . Most 1922 Peace Dollars with no mint mark are worth between $15 and $30.
- Uncirculated condition: Values can rise significantly with higher grades. For example, an MS-63 can be worth $150 – $250, while an MS-67 can fetch $10,000 or more.
- Circulated condition: Typically more valuable than those from Philadelphia, ranging from $30 to $40.
- Uncirculated condition: Rare examples can be worth hundreds or even thousands of dollars, especially those with high relief caused by minting errors. [According to NGC] , a circulated 1922 D Peace Dollar is worth between $41.50 and $50, but in pristine, uncirculated condition, it could sell for as much as $20,000.
- Circulated condition: Similar to Denver, these are harder to find and typically range from $30 to $39.
- Uncirculated condition: High-grade examples can be very valuable. [According to the NGC Price Guide] , a 1922-S Peace Dollar in About Uncirculated condition is worth between $32 and $36, while Mint State examples can range from $55 to $40,000.
- Condition: The better the condition of the coin, the higher its value.
- Mint Mark: Coins from the Denver (“D”) and San Francisco (“S”) Mints are generally rarer and more valuable than those from Philadelphia (no mint mark).
- Errors: Rare errors, such as a high relief strike, can dramatically increase a coin’s value.
- Professional Grading: For potentially valuable coins, it’s recommended to have them professionally graded by a service like NGC or PCGS to accurately determine their condition and value.
Note: The melt value of a 1922 Peace Dollar is approximately $29.45 (as of August 17, 2025), based on its 90% silver content. However, the numismatic value (collector value) often exceeds the melt value, especially for coins in higher grades or with rare errors.
