The Peace Silver Dollar was originally released in December 1921 to honor the return of peace after World War I. Created by Italian-American sculptor Anthony de Francisci, the coin marked a fresh artistic direction for US silver dollars. His design featured a strong yet graceful image of Liberty, inspired by his wife, Teresa, shown with flowing hair and a radiant crown meant to represent hope and renewal. In 2021, the US Mint brought back the Peace Dollar as a modern silver bullion coin struck in .999 pure silver to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the original issue. Today, 2023 Peace Silver Dollar Coins are available in certified condition from BullionMax.

The return of the Morgan and Peace Dollars in 2021 marked an important moment for modern US silver coinage. These coins were no longer intended for circulation but instead produced as silver bullion collectibles aimed at investors and collectors. The modern Peace Dollar is struck in .999 pure silver and has been offered on an annual basis since 2021, with the exception of 2022.

The obverse of the 2023 Peace Silver Dollar Coin features a left-facing portrait of Lady Liberty. This design replaced the earlier Morgan Dollar image used in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, offering a more modern look for Liberty. Her spiked crown resembles rays of sunlight, symbolizing optimism and the dawn of peace. Teresa de Francisci once again served as the inspiration for Liberty’s appearance, honoring the original artist’s vision.

The reverse of the 2023 Peace Silver Dollar Coin shows a calm bald eagle resting on a rock engraved with the word “PEACE.” The eagle holds an olive branch, reinforcing the theme of harmony and stability. Sun rays rise behind the eagle, mirroring the hopeful symbolism found on the obverse. This updated reverse design reflects both the sacrifices of World War I and the lasting value of peace.
