1885-O Morgan Silver Dollar PCGS MS66

1885-O Morgan Graded FOUR Levels Higher Than The One In The Smithsonian®

The New Orleans Mint began striking Morgan Silver Dollars during the second year of the coin's release in 1879 and continued sticking the coin until 1904. New Orleans didn't get the chance to strike the Morgan in 1921 during the coin's final year of issue for one simple reason: the mint had closed in 1909. One of the knocks on ALL Morgans from the New Orleans Mint is their reputation as being consistently the lowest quality coins among all the mints that struck the fabled coins. That means finding a nicely graded Morgan from New Orleans is a real find! Here we have a small group of 1885-O Morgans that not only comes in nice condition but were graded by the Professional Coin Grading Service (PCGS) as being in fantastic Gem Uncirculated Mint State-66 (MS66) condition!

COIN HIGHLIGHTS:

• AMERICA'S MOST POPULAR COIN – The Morgan Silver Dollar–so named for its designer, U.S. Mint Assistant Engraver George T. Morgan–has stood the test of time. Struck from 1878 to 1904 and again in 1921, it was the coin of America's "Wild West" and jingled in the coin purses of gamblers, gunfighters, soldiers, and dance hall girls.
• CLASSIC DESIGNS – Morgan's historic design depicts a profile of Lady Liberty on the obverse while the reverse features an eagle with outstretched wings. The model used for Liberty was Miss Anna Williams of Philadelphia, who Morgan declared to have the most perfect feminine profile he had ever seen.
• STRUCK IN GLEAMING AMERICAN SILVER – Struck in 26.73 grams of highly pure 90% fine silver from the famous Comstock Lode, the Morgan Silver Dollar is a big coin 38.1 mm in diameter. When this coin was plunked down on a counter, its weight meant real money, pure and simple.
• LEGAL TENDER SILVER DOLLAR – Morgans were $1 legal tender and struck during the heyday of America's Wild West era where coins were overwhelmingly preferred over paper currency.
• GEM UNCIRCULATED CONDITION – Your 1885-O Morgan Silver Dollar has been graded by the Professional Coin Grading Service (PCGS) in Gem Uncirculated Mint State-66 (MS66) condition–FOUR grades higher than the same coin displayed in the renowned National Numismatic Collection at the Smithsonian® in Washington, D.C.
• THE CASE OF THE DISAPPEARING MORGANS – While millions of Morgan Silver Dollars were struck from 1878 through 1921, massive silver meltings and the ravages of time have taken their toll. Today coin experts believe that only 15% of all Morgans ever struck remain in existence!
