Welcome to this forum!

My, my..  Your first post is certainly one of interest.  Yes, if your Peace Dollar is,
indeed, a Matt Proof she is worth $60,000 USD easily.  Unfortunately, even with
the best of photography, such a determination as to whether your coin is the
more valueable Matt Proof issue, or a regular issue, is impossible to determine.  
There are no real die markers that are telling, from just a photo.  I would only
recommend that you submit your coin to PCGS for certification.

I submitted a well worn 1922, several years ago, hoping it was a Matt Proof lost
in circulation.  Alas, it was not.  I did experience some excitement from the
submission.  It's always enjoyable to hope for riches and treasure!  

Your coin looks to be in great condition, wear wise. Perhaps you have
another Peace dollar?  If you were to place (carefully) another, almost uncirculated,
Peace dollar on top of your dollar, and if the two dollars lie flat together, without
any space between them, then I would submit you have a regular issue coin.

If the silver dollar on top of your dollar should not lie completely flat, and if it
"rocks" back and forth a little, you can then be nearly assured your coin IS
a Matte Proof issue, and certainly worthy of submitting to one of the well
known coin grading services for certification and encapsulation (to protect it)...  

Good Luck...and again, welcome!

 Thanks for a good advise so far I do not have another uncirculated 1922 Peace Dollar but I do have one 1923 Peace dollar Uncirculated.So what I did I put the 1922 on top of it and it's look like it lying so Flat a little tiny space.The way I Look on my 1922 it's High Relief but I will find it out If  I can buy another 1922 Peace Dollar Uncirculated  On line auction store.
  Here's the Pic of 1923 and 1922 Peace dollar.

To me, judging by the photos which can never fully substitute from a personal, up close, examination, the coin in question is a business strike. The matte proofs are so exceeding rare finding one is like winning a lottery. One difference is it is easy to tell if you have a winning lottery ticket while a bit more difficult with the coin.

In this case the rim and lettering are not well enough struck to inspire confidence in the proof status of the coin. To tell for sure you can follow the previous suggestion and send it to PCGGs for their blessing but that will cost money and the chances are low it is a proof.
