What AU55 means
A 1926 Peace dollar with no mint mark in About Uncirculated (AU-55) shows slight wear at the highest points of the design and nowhere else: the hair above Liberty’s eye and the high points of the rays of her crown are just touched, the eagle’s shoulder and the feathers along the top of its folded wing likewise, and most of the original mint lustre is intact. The trade writes it as Choice About Uncirculated, and it is the rung where the question stops being how worn the coin is and becomes how much lustre it kept.
A slab, a dealer’s list or a price guide may write this grade AU-55. They are the same grade and the same 1926 Peace dollar with no mint mark.
