1928-S PCGS MS-64. 1928-S PCGS MS-64.
Lot Title: 1928-S PCGS MS-64.
Description: Mel Smythe Collection. At the next grade level, 1928-S could very well be the rarest date in the entire series (exceeded perhaps by 1925-S), though at the present MS-64, the 90% savings over a single point upgrade becomes almost irresistible to the savvy collector. This example presents basically a gleaming white overall appearance, affected only by scattered areas of slightly greyish shading, especially toward the obverse left field. In terms of abrasions, she's a beauty, with Liberty's cheek clean as a whistle and the whole portrait showing none but the smallest of ticks in limited quantity. (PCGS# 007374)

885The Midwest Summer Sale 2014 on 07/18/2014$360.00
1928-S PCGS MS-63.
Bradford Pear Collection. Frequently playing second fiddle to its key-date Philadelphia counterpart in lower grades, 1928-S becomes a semi-key in its own right at MS-63, and actually equals or exceeds...

1928-S PCGS MS-64.
LES Set. 1928-S proves to be just as tough to find in MS-64 as its more famous Philadelphia counterpart. Pastel blue-grey tones blend into the outer field areas of the obverse, and subtly tint much...

1928-S PCGS MS-64+.
Esteemed as a key in high grade, 1928-S commands the cost of a small car in MS-65, making MS-64+ an extremely attractive alternative. No disappointments here, as the only blemishes appear to be just...
984The Collectors' Auction 2013 on 10/18/2013$425.00
1928-S PCGS MS-63.
A small splash of iridescent rainbow toning decorates the space above Liberty's portrait, with the balance of the obverse showing chartreuse-grey patina over reasonably sharp design elements. ...
856The Collectors' Auction 2012 on 10/05/2012$285.00
1928-S NGC MS-62.
No obvious deficiency should bar upgrade consideration, as the cheek and fields seem surprisingly clean for the grade. A couple of contact marks do show up on the eagle's wing, and at excessive...
766The Midwest Summer Sale 2012 on 07/27/2012$1,450.00
1928-S PCGS MS-64 CAC.
Surfaces display exceptionally dynamic frost and mostly white eye-appeal overall, with a dash of cinnamon along the obverse far left and right sides. The cinnamon-gold toning spreads out in even more...
883The Midwest Summer Sale 2010 on 07/23/2010$425.00
1928-S ICG MS-62 and 1934-S ANACS AU-53 details/cleaned.
Much better Peace dollars are found in this pairing, both of them certified. 1928-S is graded MS-62 by ICG, and this is a case where the grade is suitable at minimum, since the satiny surfaces are...
664The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/12/2010$270.00
1928-S MS-62.
(Ex. Heritage Summer Long Beach Sale 1985:1349) Sold long before Heritage became a major force in the numismatic arena, this 1928-S Peace dollar has unfortunately been stored in a PVC flip (insert...
821The Midwest Winter Sale 2009 on 02/13/2009$320.00
1928-S PCGS MS-63.
Copious luster fills the fields with satin texture. A prominent bag mark on Liberty's chin is joined by a handful of other similar smaller handling marks to account for the grade.
822The Midwest Winter Sale 2009 on 02/13/2009$975.00
1928-S PCGS MS-64.
In your cataloger's experience, the 1928-S Peace dollar is more difficult to locate than the 1928 in grades of MS-64, despite the preference given by most price guides for the P-mint coin. This...
777The Collectors' Auction 2008 on 10/17/2008$875.00
1928-S PCGS MS-64.
Several issues in the Peace dollar series are readily available in most grades up through MS-62, but then become considerably tougher above that grade, and the 1928-S is certainly one such coin....
778The Collectors' Auction 2008 on 10/17/2008$1,350.00
1928-S PCGS MS-64.
Near the "gem" level, the 1928-S Peace dollar is on par with the rarity and value of any other coin in the series save the 1934-S (with which it practically shares top honors at the gem grade). Less...

1928-S ICG MS-63.
Exquisite hues of intertwining crimson and blue encircle this specimen's satiny, lustrous central portions, presenting an enhancing visual aspect. A scattered array of ticks and scuffs are obscured,...
889The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/17/2006$140.00
1928-S MS-60+.
