Lot Title: 1934-S PCGS MS-64 (green label).
Description: Mel Smythe Collection. Hands-down the key to the series at the approachable MS-64 level, the surface of this 1934-S displays basically zero noticeable abrasions and scarcely any color, aside from whispery dove-grey patina. Low magnification reveals an interesting toning pattern of speckled blue-grey micro-dots that are responsible for the overall greyish cast, but it scarcely impedes the potent underlying luster that puts this coin right on the cusp of the very valuable gem level. Decent sharpness also helps elevate the quality above what is almost always seen for 1934-S. (PCGS# 007377)
Low Estimate: $4,500.00

Lot #AuctionCurrent Bid or Hammer PriceDescription
857The Collectors' Auction 2012 on 10/05/2012$390.00
1934-S PCGS AU-53.
Indigo-blue and powder-gold toning mottles each side, but doesn't distract much from obvious AU quality. Much luster manages to remain even in the fields, and the hair curls and eagle's feathers...
858The Collectors' Auction 2012 on 10/05/2012$675.00
1934-S PCGS AU-55.
Key to the series in AU and most better grades, the 1934-S is rare as hen's teeth at AU-55 in a PCGS holder. This steam-grey example offers a narrow band of toast-gold toning on the obverse left and...
665The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/12/2010$280.00
1934-S PCGS Genuine.
The PCGS Genuine-94 code indicates "altered surfaces", but really, it would suffice to state that this aluminum-grey key Peace dollar has been rather drastically cleaned. Surfaces are stark white and...
666The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/12/2010$4,100.00
1934-S NGC MS-64 (CAC).
In the most popular BU grades up through MS-64, 1934-S is the undisputed key to the Peace dollar series, valued at multiples of the next most expensive coin (which varies depending upon exact grade). ...
700The Collectors' Auction 2009 on 10/16/2009$775.00
1934-S PCGS AU-58.
Without doubt, a fully mint-state assessment has to be very tempting for this key-date Peace dollar. Both sides give the impression of full mint luster, and the flowlines extend fully through all...
1039The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/24/2009$1,525.00
1934-S NGC MS-61.
Defying the usual ramification of copious patina that cloaks both sides, a full complement of mint luster still manages to shine through, providing more satiny effect than expected of a moderately...
1040The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/24/2009$3,300.00
1934-S NGC MS-64.
In any grade from AU through MS-64, 1934-S is the undisputed key to the Peace dollar series, and many of the certified coins in that range are of questionable aesthetic value, as this is an issue that...
902The Collectors' Auction 2007 on 10/19/2007$190.00
1934-S ANACS AU-50 Details, Whizzed.
Whizzed surfaces have produced the unnatural sheen that is typical of such processed coins. ANACS indicated AU-50 details, though this was probably an AU-55 or better coin prior to being processed.
903The Collectors' Auction 2007 on 10/19/2007$3,400.00
1934-S PCGS MS-63.
Refreshing and certainly unusual for the issue as the obverse is actually the nicer of the two sides, yielding an appearance that is especially choice for the grade of just MS-63. Indeed, the obverse...
796The Collector's Auction on 10/20/2006$300.00
1934-S AU.
This is a solid About Uncirculated Peace Dollar. It has a lot of original mint luster, a good strike, and no major distractions. Rose patina is visible on both the obverse and reverse.
797The Collector's Auction on 10/20/2006$310.00
1934-S NGC AU-50.
The majority of the year's 1,011,000 mintage production was delivered into the channels of commercial activity. An exquisite golden blush abundantly graces this specimen's satiny surfaces presenting...
890The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/17/2006$4,400.00
1934-S PCGS MS-64.
An impressive looking example for this San Francisco Branch Mint key date. Its satiny, lustrous surfaces are adorned with a delicate iridescence creating an eye appealing cartwheel. A sprinkling of...
891The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/17/2006$4,400.00
1934-S PCGS MS-64.
Frosty mint brilliance and crisp design details make this key date specimen to the Peace Dollar series a rather marvelous example. The ticks and hairlines observed are, for the most part, obscured to...
