R. Green of Chicago, Illinois, advertised the following Peace dollars in the November 1950 issue of The Numismatist. At the time the coin market was in a down cycle, membership growth in the American Numismatic Association had slowed virtually to a halt, and prices of many coins slid. Many Peace dollars were available at cheaper prices in 1950 than any other time during the preceding several years.

The November 1950 issue of The Numismatist published an advertisement by W.E. Johnson of Santa Barbara, California, offering 20-coin rolls of Uncirculated Peace dollars for sale. The listing gives an indication of pieces available in quantity in deal-ers' hands at the time. It was not "fashionable" to offer bags for sale, but roll offerings, such as this one, appeared from time to time. Within a few years, bag offerings would become common in print.
Bags of the Peace dollar issues listed below were available on the market in 1949 and 1950, but as the coin market was in a slump, there was little call for them.
1922 $24.00 per roll.
1922-D $24.00 per roll.
1922-S $24.00 per roll.
1923 $24.00 per roll.
1923-S $24.00 per roll.
1924 $24.00 per roll.
1925-S $25.00 per roll.
1926-S $25.00 per roll.
1927-S $26.00 per roll.
1928-S $26.00 per roll.
1935-S $26.00 per roll.
