"Misprint"To clear things up, coins are said to be STRUCK or MINTED. The Word "print" is used for things made with paper and ink, like $1 bills. If not in collectible conditionThe silver content of a Peace Dollar is .900 silver (90% pure silver). Its weight is 26.73 grams. This equals about 77% of an ounce of pure silver per coin. Your coin is worth the current meltdown price for silver, called the spot price. At the time I write this, $15.33. Be aware there are many counterfeit peace dollars in the market.

The phrase "In God We Trust" is the national motto of the United States. It is a Congressional law that mandates the national motto appear on all U.S. coins and currency. The "v" in trust was another usage for the letter "u". The same

phrase appears on the standing liberty quarters made from 1916 - 1930.
