The US Mint is releasing the 2023 Uncirculated Morgan and Peace Dollars on July 13, 2023, during the Summer FUN Show. To celebrate these coins, Numismatic Guaranty Company® (NGC®) is offering special labels and designations that enhance the coins and mark the occasion of their release.

NGC will offer the First Day of Issue, First Day - FUN Show and FUN Show Releases designations for qualifying coins submitted to NGC at the Summer FUN Show, being held in Orlando from July 13-15. Special submission instructions must be followed. For regular submissions of these coins, click here.

The Morgan Dollar was minted from 1878 to 1904 after a storied production process. It was later minted again in 1921, before finally being retired. The Peace Dollar, minted from 1921 to 1935, replaced the Morgan Dollar. It became a symbol of America's modernization in the 20th century in addition to commemorating the peace achieved after World War I.

In 2021, to recognize the 100th anniversary of the significant transition from the Morgan Dollar to the Peace Dollar, the US Mint released a new series of Morgan and Peace Dollars.

Altogether, NGC has graded more than 5 million Morgan and Peace Dollars, including more than 185,000 examples of the 2021 Morgan Dollar and more than 35,000 examples of the 2021 Peace Dollar.

The NGC Morgan Dollar label and the NGC Peace Dollar label convey the labor and optimism of the American spirit embodied in these coins. The labels will be available for all submitters of 2023 Morgan and Peace Dollars. They will also be offered for bulk submissions of vintage Morgan and Peace Dollars, and oversize versions are available for bulk submissions of multi-coin sets.
