A 1922-D Peace dollar graded MS70 is that coin in one particular state of preservation — the date and the mint mark are already fixed, and MS70 is what a grader called the surface that survived.

What MS70 means
A 1922-D Peace dollar in Mint State (MS-70) is flawless at magnification: no wear, no marks, no weakness in the strike, full lustre everywhere. It is the top of the scale and it is almost never awarded to a coin that was struck for circulation, so a listing offering one deserves the certification number checked before anything else.
A slab, a dealer’s list or a price guide may write this grade MS-70. They are the same grade and the same 1922-D Peace dollar.
Where this grade sits
The grades a 1922-D Peace dollar is given run from PO1 to MS70. MS70 is the top of that scale, so there is no grade above it to step up to. In general terms, the higher the grade the more the coin is worth.
