Congress limited total mintages of Peace silver dollars to the number of Morgans melted in 1918. By 1927, that quota was getting near and mintages had dwindled greatly from the peak 1922-1923 period. The 1927-D mintage of just 1.3 million proved to be the lowest Denver output in the series - less than 4% of the 1922-D production. Today it's estimated that merely 45,000 of the 1927-D Peace dollar may survive in the clearly detailed Very Fine quality we offer, or better.
