The 1974 Dominican Republic Silver Peso, KM# 35, was issued to commemorate the 12th Central American and Caribbean Games. This non-circulating coin is struck in 90% silver, weighs 26.7 grams (with an actual silver weight of approximately 0.77 troy ounces), and has a diameter of 38 mm.

The obverse of the coin shows the Dominican Republic’s national coat of arms without any memorial legend, while the reverse features the coat of arms within a circular motif placed atop a map, marking the event and denominating the coin as “UN PESO.” The coin was produced in Brilliant Uncirculated and Proof finishes, with a reported mintage of 5,000 coins for collectors.

A PCGS MS69 grade signifies near-perfect quality with superb strike and original luster, qualifying as a “Top Pop” example. Collectors value coins like this for their high technical and visual standards, as well as their commemorative significance.

This silver peso is particularly sought for its combination of precious metal content, event commemoration, and exceptional preservation, appealing to both numismatic and sports memorabilia collectors. The coin stands out as one of the finest certified pieces of Dominican Republic modern coinage.
