As the story goes…Farran Zerbe visited the San Francisco Mint in 1921 to see the strikings of the first Peace dollars from dies that were shipped from the Philadelphia Mint. To his great disappointment, the dies turned out to be of the old Morgan dollar design. Mint officials then assuaged his disappointment by striking several 1921 "S" mint Morgan silver dollars for him as presentation strikes, referred to as "Proofs." He gave many of them away to friends and at least five of these coins are believed to still exist, but they seldom surface.
Some experts of these coins believe that the story of these presentation coins, referred to as "Proofs," that were struck in San Francisco from dies made at the Philadelphia Mint and bearing the "S" mintmark, have been confused with traditional "Proof" Morgan dollars that were customarily struck at the Philadelphia Mint. Note that the U.S. Mint did not issue proof sets during 1921.
