Popular Historic Program Will Return in 2023
The United States Mint has announced that it will forgo the production and sales of Morgan and Peace Silver Dollars in 2022. This calculated pause is directly related to the global pandemic’s impact upon the availability of silver blanks from the Mint’s suppliers. The suspension will give the Mint time to evaluate the best way to allocate its limited supply of silver to ensure the best customer experience it can.
“We’ll be required to make business decisions like this until the supply chain for silver blanks recovers from the disruptions caused by COVID-19,” said Mint Deputy Director Ventris C. Gibson.
“I want to ensure that our customers know,” she said, “that the modern renditions of the historic Morgan and Peace Silver Dollars will continue next year. Our goal is straightforward: to give our loyal customers the products they want and the service they deserve.”

About the United States Mint
The US Mint was created by Congress in 1792 and became part of the Department of the Treasury in 1873. It is the Nation’s sole manufacturer of legal tender coinage and is responsible for producing circulating coinage for the Nation to conduct its trade and commerce.
The United States Mint also produces numismatic products, including Proof, uncirculated, and commemorative coins; Congressional Gold Medals; and silver and gold bullion coins. The Mint’s numismatic programs are self-sustaining and operate at no cost to taxpayers.
Do to the Mints poor leadership maybe they should stop production altogether
.
Not nice!
Wanna bet they cancel the Morgans and Peace?
Sad to say, and I really admired the 2021s but the mint will probably make 700,000 commemorative painted purple mountains majesty coins in clad, silver, and gold instead.
Shame on you
Produce Morgan and Peace Dollar yearly.
The freaking Government doesn’t make enough money, so they sell a dollar coin for $22.00 and up. Are we all tired of paying more for nothing and paying politicians money for doing nothing? One way or another, we are getting screwed.
Ace, you do realize that this “dollar coin” contains pure silver worth $22 or so before any collectors premium is added?
“products they want service they deserve-” hahahaha ahhhh ok right so a bunch of malarkey is what we want and deserve? If the treasury can’t secure 2 million silver blanks it ain’t due to covid Sugar…its due to a squeeze and fiat going down fast. Oh forgot to add I think the mint is full of baloney.
Amen
How much is my 1923 peace dollar with the word trvst on it
