The 1926 Peace Dollar is a coin that shouldn't really exist. 

After the 'Scopes Monkey Trial' drew intense national publicity, an employee at the US Mint took it upon themselves to make their feelings known in the debate. 

Pick up any 1926 Peace Dollar and you’ll see the word “GOD” from “IN GOD WE TRUST” is far more prominent than any other year.

Without instruction from the powers that be at the US Mint, the employee in the engraving department wanted to emphasise their fundamentalist beliefs and literally emphasise God’s place in America. The actions of that anonymous worker created one of the most interesting and collectable US coins ever issued.

Here’s why it’s a CPM Recommendation:

  • Unique 'God' text variation on the 1926 coin - making it unlike any other in US history
  • Its unique background story makes it one of the most captivating and collectable US coins ever issued
  • Presented alongside a standard Peace Dollar allowing you to compare the difference
  • Both are struck from 90% Silver
  • Presented in a bespoke, wooden presentation case, each coin is protectively sealed in its own capsule to ensure its quality for generations to come
