CoinNews photos offer a first look at the United States Mint’s 2026-P Diamond Field Morgan and Peace Silver Dollar Set, showcasing a new finish developed for America’s 250th anniversary. The images highlight the coins’ patterned surfaces, dual dates, Liberty Bell 250 privy marks and presentation packaging.
Released Nov. 12 for $375, the set pairs two of America’s most recognizable silver dollar designs with a finish never before used on U.S. coinage. Developed specifically for the Semiquincentennial, the Diamond Field treatment features a repeating pattern created through laser-engraved tooling, producing surfaces that reflect light from multiple angles.
As is often the case with coins featuring special finishes, photos can only show so much. The Diamond Field dollars look much better in hand, especially as the light catches their surfaces from different angles.
Struck at the Philadelphia Mint in 99.9% fine silver, each dollar contains 0.859 troy ounce of silver and bears a P mint mark. Both also feature dual 1776 ~ 2026 dates and a Liberty Bell privy mark incorporating the numeral 250.
The set has a product limit of 262,500 and marks the third finish offered for the Mint’s 2026 Morgan and Peace dollars, following reverse proof versions in July and enhanced uncirculated editions in August.
Diamond Field Morgan Silver Dollar
George T. Morgan’s classic design portrays Liberty wearing a Phrygian cap adorned with wheat and cotton, along with a crown inscribed LIBERTY. The anniversary edition adds the dual date and Liberty Bell 250 privy mark.
Its reverse depicts an eagle with outstretched wings holding arrows and an olive branch within a wreath. The new Diamond Field pattern covers the background, providing a contrast with the raised design elements.
Diamond Field Peace Silver Dollar
Designed by Anthony de Francisci, the Peace dollar features Liberty wearing a radiant crown. Like the Morgan dollar, its obverse carries the 1776 ~ 2026 dual date and Liberty Bell 250 privy mark.
The reverse shows an eagle resting on a rock while holding an olive branch, with PEACE inscribed below. Its broad background areas offer another view of the patterned finish.
Diamond Field Dollar Set Packaging
Both silver dollars are housed together in a blue U.S. Mint presentation box and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
Fourth Morgan and Peace Dollar Two-Coin Set
The Diamond Field release marks the fourth consecutive year the Mint has paired modern Morgan and Peace dollars in a two-coin set. Previous editions, issued from 2023 through 2025, featured reverse proof finishes.
Those sets debuted at $185 in 2023 and $215 in both 2024 and 2025, compared with $375 for this year’s offering. The Mint has since increased prices for the still-available 2024 and 2025 sets to $375.
The modern Morgan and Peace dollar series began in 2021, commemorating the centennial of the final Morgan dollar and first Peace dollar. After a pause in 2022, annual releases resumed in 2023, with proof, uncirculated and reverse proof editions preceding this year’s expanded selection of finishes.
The 2026 Diamond Field Morgan and Peace Silver Dollar Two-Coin Set is available through the Mint’s silver dollar product page.
