Lot 3155
1884-S Morgan Dollar. PCGS graded MS-62. Lovely light golden toning and a nice strike. Very scarce date in Unc. A fresh, fully struck, and thoroughly enjoyable toned specimen of this scarce year and branch mint. As has been commented on before, most 1884-S dollars reached circulation. Few were saved at the time. Fewer still ever turned up in Treasury department or secondary market hoards. To make a point of this, the vast holdings of the LaVere Redfield estate, with its 450,000+ mostly S-mint dates, failed to have more than a few 1884-S examples, while other dates nearby were found in multiple bag quantities. A landmark coin in any Mint State grade. Pop 89; 52 finer. (PCGS # 7156) .
Estimated Value $6,000 - 7,500.
