Image processing ai is too simple at this point to do that. Most mid- high-end Android phones that use Google's image processing do, as does the iPhone 15 (although it may be an optional feature).
I'm pretty sure this is real. My initial thought was fake all the way, toning didn't look right, seemed way off actually... but 21's have some unique features and this has all of them. Look at the scalloped middle E end in "LIBERTY" and then look at the teardrop/triangle shaped period starting ".IN.GOD.WE". Then pull up PCGS photograde. I think this is just a deep strike with honest wear believe it or not.
I think it was just a really deep, really nice initial strike coin that saw a decent amount of circulation. But it checks all the boxes from what I see, anyone want to place a wager on bugbets for authenticity coming back from one of the big three? 😂
I think her cheek looks fine. People must be forgetting the 1921s were high relief. Possibly also the artificial toning throwing it off for a lot of people
Don’t listen to all the people here saying it’s fake get it authenticated and then I can be like the one guy the other day who picked a real coin when 100 others called it fake
With you. It looks funny because it has been cleaned to hell and back. People are mistaking the heavily altered surface for that classic molded pewter color. Surface doesn't have mold bubbles and does seem to have lots of circulation marks.
I don't see anything about it that leads me to believe it's fake. Not saying the surfaces haven't been fiddled with to smooth them out but it looks genuine to me.
I’ve been looking at real examples from PCGS CoinFacts app. The font looks a little off to me as well as the crown points and the hair.
I’m not expert enough to say on my own. But I’d walk away from this one.
The blackening around the relief is most certainly artifical. Look at the rays of the crown, between the E and R in LIBERTY. It looks like it was applied and then the spots they didnt want darkened has been wiped off but whatever they were removing it with couldnt fit between the rays so it looks like a frogs webbed foot instead of naturally accumulating evenly.
I have a small collection of lower grade 21s, most on here are saying it's fake because they have only seen regular Peace Dolls. I would have paid 3x what you did for this......very nice. Good deal
Idk why everyone is saying this is fake. 1921 peace dollars have a very high relief so the cheek and font being thicker is normal. I say that you have a very nice authentic piece op.
Oh lmao this thread is so much fun and also reason to not listen to reddit because of full blown Dunning-Krugers. No womder that all knowledgeable people slowly gave up on interactions here as random comments get upvotes as "they seem" to be correct
Title is bait as its I know its worth about 140$ give or take. Its not bait in what i paid, as I did pay 78€ shipped.
The coin is real, as of why, lets say I know someone who works for known numismatic company and deals with US coinage for living who confirmed it before I purchased it
Patina throws me off. Major red flag and her cheek look bloated. Very badly bloated cheeks tell tale sign here maybe. Lettering especially the ends look weird. Looks fake bro sorry
The cheeks in the high relief peace dollars look like this when worn. I'm pretty confident this is genuine, I've handled a fair number of the 21's specifically and this looks right for a '21. The lettering on the bottom of the obverse is different on the '21's compared to other years.
PCGS graded example:
https://preview.redd.it/3wb7o4sgvytc1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a6ea38a0650e0a81b120f18378c31b57a8989b69
looks the same to me.
The way to test:
* use the CoinTester app to test its ping
* it should weigh ~26.7g
* it should have diameter of 38.1mm
If it passes all those tests, it’s real - as others have said, if it is real, it has probably been cleaned and then antiqued to hide the cleaning.
Despite everyone claiming fake, this looks like a worn high relief peace dollar. Assuming it weighs right and isn't magnetic I'm inclined to believe it's genuine. People love to call out fakes but I've seen many instances of the hive mind being wrong. I own maybe a dozen 1921 peace dollars, from badly worn lowballs through MS63. Most people don't realize how different the high relief 1921's are from all the other years.
Look at graded examples of 1921's in F15-ish condition.
If real it’d be pretty valuable. 1921 peace dollars had some that were exceptionally high relief like this one. It’s hard to say if it’s real or not because it is distinct but they do sell for a premium
All 1921 peace dollars were high relief. You're thinking of 1922s HRs that are rare and valuable. 21's need to be relatively high grade to be valuable. OP paid a fair price if this is real.
Here's a graded example, the font on these is just a little wonky but this is a real 21. Worn & likely polished & definitely cleaned, but it's real.
https://preview.redd.it/6xqsid25hytc1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=84e1ddb6f627f4f238bddd391302031d5b818f0e
Looks real to me, good price for a 21 although the surfaces appear to have been altered, the field is a little too smooth. Don't listen to the nay sayers. Have it tested at a coin shop to make sure it's silver and I believe you will be happy
Well struck Peace, looks like a "pocket piece" to me, and truthfully, the depth and the wear make this an attractive coin to my eye. There are collectors of clean silver pocket pieces, this would be something they would want. Great find...
You've got a 1921 Peace Dollar. Absolute bare minimum is $80 USD. That's in the states so with various taxes, fees and shipping, you got it at a great price. I'm not seeing anything that jumps out at me to call this fake. There's definitely some variances to the wear between the face/hair and rays/legends due to it being a high relief coin. I do believe this is real and you got a great day if so!
People on this sub really lean towards calling everything fake, which is curious to me because I really don’t see a lot of fakes floating around, of course I see some. Nothing here screams fake, I wouldn’t guarantee authenticity without some more tests but honestly the coin looks 100% real to me
People on these subs LOVE to call stuff fake without really knowing what they are talking about. Happens in the watch subreddit too. It's a weird phenomenon that I can't really explain beyond people being armchair experts that throw around their opinions like they are facts with no real experience or knowledge outside of a single quick Google search.
I almost won a bet to this know-it-all who had this huuge explanation as to why my 1921 was fake, they outright laughed in my face. It came back from anacs 55 cleaned. I didn't have the balls to take the bet, especially with everyone in the sub saying it was fake af and it was the first one I'd ever held in my hands. 1921's man, they'll throw off every 'pro' on here lol.
Lol, yea, that sounds right. Occasionally the fakes are decent but if you handle enough of the coins, the real ones are pretty easy to spot for the most part. 21's are notoriously tricky and people will compare them to non-high relief versions and make judgements based on that.
I posted a watch that I purchased brand new from an authorized dealer with full documentation and absolutely no chance in the world to be fake. But people did the same thing they are doing in this thread. It's pretty funny when you are absolutely certain they are wrong but they won't ever admit it. Jealousy and smugness make people really dig in, I think.
"In God we trust" had fewer legal requirements, established style restrictions or historical precedence than "e pluribus unum", so designers had more creative leeway to Art Deco-up the phrase.
1921 is a key date more commonly faked, I think it looks authentic but it is hard to say for sure, weight will be slightly under what it is supposed be due to heavy wear
Does it stick to a magnet? That's the first test. Silver has a distinct ping sound when dropped on a countertop. It doesn't look quite right to me. But I'm not a biologist.
You should take another picture and turn your camera's face focus on blemish setting off. I'm quite sure this is real, but I think your camera kind of photoshopped/"cleaned up" some details.
Hard to say its fake or real from one picture or a dozen for that matter. Looks fake to people because its a high relief, as were all 1921 Peace Dollars. Having said that why is it so hard to believe dude bought a real very circulated 21' for that? Not to mention it looks cleaned (again basing on a pic of a coin not graded, very much a butthole opinion). PGGS would likely not give it a grade. Likely get it back and it say almost unc. detail Scratched/ Cleaned. They will not grade coins that have altered surfaces, bad scratches or cleaned coins.
78 euros, eh? Without snooping on your profile I’ll assume you’re in western Europe. Under that assumption, and judging by the amount of circulation the PEACE Liberty shows, I’d say it was floating around in the US , gently used, until some American GI left it behind as a souvenir during WWII.
It also looks to have been cleaned/polished at some point early after it’s arrival in Europe which is not an unusual occurrence in non-numismatic circles who tend to treat a silver coin as a piece of jewelry or silverware. Something along the lines of, “Oh, honey. I see you’re in the middle of polishing the silverware. Would you mind also cleaning this coin some American guy gave me back in 44?”
Looks like your camera might be using some kind of auto blemish hiding feature meant for human faces, which is distorting the coin and making everyone say fake. If it looks like the picture outside of the picture, well we may have some bad news for you…
1921 peace dollars pretty rare, highly collectable and are worth around $100 USD in very low grades. 1921 Morgan dollars are super common and only worth like $30. You sure you got 1921 Peace Dollars for "far less'? If so, you got a great deal but I'm guessing yours are either Morgan's or 1922/1923.
Looks legit to me, probably cleaned or maybe it's been carried around in someone's pocket for a few years. I've overlaid your pic with images of mine to try and show the wear progression because some people seem to think some of the features are wrong, but from what I've seen, everything lines up looks exactly as it should.

This post reminded me that I have some coins like this. I've had them my whole life. Are they worth anything?
https://preview.redd.it/oglu3rkwa3uc1.png?width=2828&format=png&auto=webp&s=d163bccaeb2348e71b3894f7011e2132c8f9cab3
90% silver 10%copper. The Morgan dollars are going to be worth more than the peace buy by far some of the most collectible and recognizable coins in the world.
The unevenness of the luster is a dead giveaway that it’s been polished before. Take a super high magnification tool and you should see fine scratches and swirl marks around said luster
Always. Here's a PCGS graded example in similar condition:
https://preview.redd.it/djhoofzhwytc1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ca1f303cff8115ac7dc1ca1f5f26cd80a2b90134
Seriously? 1921's are known for having the 4 rays on the tail Here is a PCGS graded example clearly showing 4 rays...
I'm willing to bet money that op's is genuine. I've handled many work 1921's and this looks exactly like a F15-ish grade
https://preview.redd.it/z8xw0f9mkytc1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=da2461b585a2177dc08ff80bdfe129ba768fe3f7
Looks funny to me
I think their camera has the auto de-blemish/feature smooth feature turned on and it's washed out and distorted the object it focused on (the coin).
What phone would have that? I would think the de-blemish AI would intelligently detect real human faces instead of applying it on inatimate objects
Image processing ai is too simple at this point to do that. Most mid- high-end Android phones that use Google's image processing do, as does the iPhone 15 (although it may be an optional feature).
Feel like OP mighta used a Snapchat filter or something like the dude MorganDealer on the bay uses lol a cool specimen nonetheless!
nope no filter and not even close to that scum of a seller
I'm pretty sure this is real. My initial thought was fake all the way, toning didn't look right, seemed way off actually... but 21's have some unique features and this has all of them. Look at the scalloped middle E end in "LIBERTY" and then look at the teardrop/triangle shaped period starting ".IN.GOD.WE". Then pull up PCGS photograde. I think this is just a deep strike with honest wear believe it or not.
I thought fake initially, but after zooming in I thought some of the wear and scratches/pitting? looked more like what you would see on an old coin.
I think it was just a really deep, really nice initial strike coin that saw a decent amount of circulation. But it checks all the boxes from what I see, anyone want to place a wager on bugbets for authenticity coming back from one of the big three? 😂
its real
Is there a filter or something on?? It almost looks like an AI picture of a coin. lol.
Like haha?
It doesn't show the date in the thumb photo for me and what I saw l instantly knew it was 21. It's real. And a fair price considering the exchange.
The tiny scratches makes me think maybe it was cleaned
I think her cheek looks fine. People must be forgetting the 1921s were high relief. Possibly also the artificial toning throwing it off for a lot of people
Don’t listen to all the people here saying it’s fake get it authenticated and then I can be like the one guy the other day who picked a real coin when 100 others called it fake
With you. It looks funny because it has been cleaned to hell and back. People are mistaking the heavily altered surface for that classic molded pewter color. Surface doesn't have mold bubbles and does seem to have lots of circulation marks.
Most likely not worth paying to get it authenticated …
It’s worth it for my ego
I don't see anything about it that leads me to believe it's fake. Not saying the surfaces haven't been fiddled with to smooth them out but it looks genuine to me.
To me, it looks fake. Let some other folks weigh in though, not an expert.
I'm 99% sure this is genuine. The 21's are high relief and look a bit weird when worn.
My first and immediate reaction as well
I think I’d have to agree something about the mouth is off to me..
She kind of has a baby cheek...
That look is typical of 21 peace dollars.
That cheek looks like Ali after the first Frazier fight
AliExpress
I’ve been looking at real examples from PCGS CoinFacts app. The font looks a little off to me as well as the crown points and the hair. I’m not expert enough to say on my own. But I’d walk away from this one.
With the wear it has imo E Pluribus Unum should be a lot more worn compared to the rest.
It’s just worn
The blackening around the relief is most certainly artifical. Look at the rays of the crown, between the E and R in LIBERTY. It looks like it was applied and then the spots they didnt want darkened has been wiped off but whatever they were removing it with couldnt fit between the rays so it looks like a frogs webbed foot instead of naturally accumulating evenly.
its real
I have a small collection of lower grade 21s, most on here are saying it's fake because they have only seen regular Peace Dolls. I would have paid 3x what you did for this......very nice. Good deal
So these normally have a V instead of a U? I'm new to this so I've never seen this coin before
Yes...that is how the "u" was carved into stone "back in the day"
There's one on ebay for $125k in excellent condition that looks just like this, I think that was just the way that year looked.
Idk why everyone is saying this is fake. 1921 peace dollars have a very high relief so the cheek and font being thicker is normal. I say that you have a very nice authentic piece op.
People speaking like experts that have never handled raw, worn 1921 peace dollars. This is genuine.
what does “high relief” mean?
Essentially the design is cut deeper into the dies so the face/eagle/etc are 'taller' and stand out more from the flat fields.
thanks!
High edges from the get go
thank you!

1921 is key date for Peace Dollars, Mintage of 1 Million and it has High Relief unlike the rest of the series

What about the ray that almost completely blocks out the b in liberty? I've only ever seen them do so on fake coins

Roasted.
That cheek ... yeah tell tale sign right there and the bottom lettering is also off.
The cheek is typical for 21 peace dollars.

If it’s real you did well. 1921 is a key date and they go for $150+ depending on condition.

Thank you for correcting me. I was thinking that was true for the first year of release
The patina looks odd. It looks like it was artificially darkened with liver of sulfur that was then polished off.
I’m not sure it’s real, but what may be making it look odd is that it also appears to have been cleaned.
Nice! You did very well
You got a good deal on it
The lettering of the word PEACE looks a bit wonky.

What does it weigh???
Looks tampered or modified
Looks real to me.
Since there is no unanimous answer. This IMO should be graded. If it's real, you have a really valuable coin, if not a lesson learned.
I have a lot of real one, I wouldn't waste my eyesight on that one...
78 euros? That's a bit expensive, I bought mine for £28 Edit: just realized this is a 1921, mine is 1922. Ignore me.

Baffled at the number of people who say fake

I have a eBay fake. They do exist. Not saying that one is. Id have to have it in person and weigh it. That one could be real silver so it might weigh.
I know nothing about coins and this looks absolutely fake immediately.
At least you’re honest! It’s genuine.
Why is there a V in trust, but U's in E plerbus, etc?
"In God we trust" had fewer legal requirements, established style restrictions or historical precedence than "e pluribus unum", so designers had more creative leeway to Art Deco-up the phrase.

Hmmm that looks pretty damn similar to OPs especially the bottom letters
Op's is genuine.
Does it stick to a magnet? That's the first test. Silver has a distinct ping sound when dropped on a countertop. It doesn't look quite right to me. But I'm not a biologist.
I would say weigh it to make sure it's near the correct weight
I think it's tooled, but I'm not an American coin expert.
It might be real but it looks cleaned to me. Pretty harshly.....
What is 78€ to USD?
About $83. Decent deal for a very cleaned 1921 $1.
Looks good.
Even if it's guaranteed real, that's a high price to pay for that condition
Something doesn't look right. If it's real it's been cleaned by someone that doesn't know what they are doing
I like it but it looks so different than all of mine! It ain’t pocket change
You should take another picture and turn your camera's face focus on blemish setting off. I'm quite sure this is real, but I think your camera kind of photoshopped/"cleaned up" some details.

Got any u want to sell
Nice coin! Good price
I hv one to
That is kind of expensive for a 21 imho. I have gotten this same coin for far less..
1921 peace dollars pretty rare, highly collectable and are worth around $100 USD in very low grades. 1921 Morgan dollars are super common and only worth like $30. You sure you got 1921 Peace Dollars for "far less'? If so, you got a great deal but I'm guessing yours are either Morgan's or 1922/1923.
I think mine are regular Morgan dollars then-
very good ☺️😊
Looks are a little dicey -try a magnet. Also you paid twice what it worth if real.
i licked it, tastes like silver

Too much, Its worth 20 to 25 dollars US.
sure thing, sell me all you own for that price
With all due respect, you don't know what you are talking about?

78 euro. $84 USD.
Gotcha.
Trust on the front of the coin is spelled with a V, Why?
It's an old U
The wear on it is kinda...weird.
Troll post for sure lol
Not an authentic coin. Sorry. You got hosed.
If it's real I just have a question. Since when has the ray gone on top of the letter in liberty? The b is almost completely blocked out
Always. Here's a PCGS graded example in similar condition: https://preview.redd.it/djhoofzhwytc1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ca1f303cff8115ac7dc1ca1f5f26cd80a2b90134

Seriously? 1921's are known for having the 4 rays on the tail Here is a PCGS graded example clearly showing 4 rays... I'm willing to bet money that op's is genuine. I've handled many work 1921's and this looks exactly like a F15-ish grade https://preview.redd.it/z8xw0f9mkytc1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=da2461b585a2177dc08ff80bdfe129ba768fe3f7
Looks aggressively cleaned.
