1885-S Morgan Dollar. PCGS graded MS-66. One of the finest known of this date, a perfect example of a condition rarity. Although available in grades up to MS-64, in true gem this coin becomes difficult to locate. Only 193 have been graded as MS-65, and to obtain an MS-66, as offererd here, only 13 have been so graded by PCGS! Furthermore, just a single coin has been graded higher. Therefore, if you demand the very, very best for your Morgan silver dollar collection, then purchase this condition rarity and put it away.
Frosty white and untoned, fresh from a mint bag that was probably released in the 1970s or so. Widely scattered bagmarks, few of any consequence, keep this piece head and shoulders above the rest. Minor roller marks on Liberty's cheek from the planchet preparation process.
Estimated Value $4,000 - 4,500.

 
Realized $4,600
