What is This 1922 Silver US Coin Called?

[gemee]

Other than being called "destroyed", I know that this is probably a form of folk art. I know nothing of coins except how to spend them, so could someone identify what this coin is called? This lady sure got one pounding at some point. Thank you!!

Peace dollar, with a face soldered to it

It's called a pop out coin and it's very collectible. I wouldn't say it's destroyed at all.

diggummup, Mdbri says a face is soldered to it. Is the face from another coin?

 

[gemee]

Thank you so much for the information!!! So this is a 1922 Peace silver dollar with a face from another coin soldered to it? Where did the other face come from? Amazing! I have never seen these before!

Cool, I have not seen one of these before

Sometimes also called a " Repousse Coin"

Not soldered on, they were pressed with a die.

Well thats interesting.

Do a google image search of pop out or repousse coin and you will see hundreds of examples of these types of coins.
There is an actual patented process for making these. Here is the patent... https://patents.google.com/patent/US775826?oq=775826

Sometimes called "3-D" coins.

The part that was added is not from another coin.

"Added" is not the correct term. Manipulated is the word. Now I'm gonna go drink my coffee.

I agree with diggummup, I think it is a Pop Up.
The Face has been Pushed out the Back.

You have the coin, You can see where it was Pushed from the Back Easier





However I disagree with diggummup on his statement it is not Destroyed.
imo The Coin is Destroyed, & now only worth what the Ring will Bring.
Maybe More/Maybe Less then a 1922 Silver dollar. but all the same.
It is no Longer a Silver Dollar that can be Graded & sold as one.. [personal view]

I myself have no answer for you, but I do have a comment, "I'd LOVE to find one of those detecting.

The face is a die face and not the coins original face. Coins used to make these wouldn't be collector grade to begin with. By turning them into jewelry, they are worth more than what they would have been numismatically. Look... https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_od...e++dollar.TRS0&_nkw=repousse++dollar&_sacat=0

After looking at those prices there’s a barber dime at an antique store in town that has one for 15 bucks it’s silver. I think I’ll be picking that up tomorrow!

I’ve had them in the past but kind of forgot about the value of them. That’s a nice bracelet. Worth way more than a 1922 peace dollar
