In the May 1946 issue of The Numismatist, Bebee Stamp & Coin Company, Chicago, offered the fol-lowing Peace dollars for sale. The 1923, which a year or so earlier was the most expensive of all Peace dollars, is now one of the cheapest-due to the release of millions. The 1934-S is absent from this list, but few people released its true scarcity. That would not happen until the next decade.
