What VF20 means
A 1922-D Peace dollar in Very Fine (VF-20) shows clear detail across the whole design with wear on the raised areas alone: the hair above Liberty’s eye and the high points of the rays of her crown are flattened but still separated from one another, the eagle’s shoulder and the feathers along the top of its folded wing keep most of their major detail, and LIBERTY across the crown, IN GOD WE TRVST and the date are sharp.
A slab, a dealer’s list or a price guide may write this grade VF-20. They are the same grade and the same 1922-D Peace dollar.
