A monumental dual tribute to America's numismatic golden age, this exclusive 2026-dated 2-Coin Set from Ascension Island celebrates the United States' 250th anniversary with two oversized reverse proof masterpieces: the iconic Morgan Dollar and the serene Peace Dollar. As a strictly one-year release, limited to just 100 sets globally, it eclipses even the scarcest U.S. Mint commemoratives, blending the rugged heritage of the Morgan with the hopeful elegance of the Peace Dollar. Subtly overlaid with .999 pure silver for a luminous, enduring patina, this set captures the enduring symbols of prosperity and resolve that defined early 20th-century America, offering elite collectors an irreplaceable artifact of national rebirth and resilience.
A Dual Symbol of American Endurance
The Morgan and Peace Dollars, born from eras of expansion and reconciliation, are revived here as sovereign legal tender from Ascension Island's Treasury—struck exclusively for 2026 to honor the semiquincentennial. With production capped at 100 sets, these reverse proof variants transform beloved classics into "condition rarities" of unparalleled scarcity. The Morgan evokes the mining booms and frontier spirit of the late 1800s, while the Peace Dollar commemorates the Armistice of 1918 and post-WWI optimism—together, they symbolize America's journey from grit to grace. As the only such oversized, silver-overlaid duo in this finish and scale, this set promises exponential appreciation, especially as institutions and high-net-worth collectors vie for multiples. Exclusivity reigns: only 100 sets exist, positioning it among the rarest legal tender Dollar revivals ever produced. Offered first to ShopGlobalCoin clientele, demand guarantees swift depletion. As legal tender in Ascension Island, a storied British Overseas Territory, it fuses international prestige with American iconography, appealing to global audiences while buffering against volatility through its substantial silver overlay.
Unmatched Rarity: Reverse Proof & Silver Overlay
Each coin in this set is hand-struck in reverse proof, inverting tradition with mirrored devices rising brilliantly from frosted fields for dramatic contrast and depth. The .999 pure silver overlay not only enhances visual pop and corrosion resistance but elevates the tactile luxury, ensuring a modern sheen that honors 250 years of U.S. sovereignty. With a total mintage of 100 sets, this is a verifiable scarcity—far rarer than U.S. Mint's 1921 Peace Dollar Peace (mintage over 1 million) or Morgan Dollars (up to 44 million). ShopGlobalCoin's exclusive allocation makes this a once-in-a-generation acquisition.
Issuer Excellence
Hand-struck at a premier U.S. facility on flawless 1.83 oz. blanks, these coins exemplify cutting-edge artistry from Ascension Island's Treasury. The reverse proof technique, combined with the silver overlay, yields museum-quality detail: every ridge on Lady Liberty's crown and feather in the eagle's wing gleams with ethereal precision. This fusion of historical homage and innovative finishing underscores the issuer's commitment to numismatic excellence, crafting pieces that feel as weighty as America's legacy.
