Rare in Mint State
1884-S Morgan Silver Dollar. MS-61 (PCGS).
Sharply struck with bountiful satin luster, this beautiful example is further enhanced by delicate peripheral toning in iridescent gold. The rarity of the 1884-S Morgan dollar in Mint State is well known, survivors avidly sought as highlights in advanced collections of this ever-popular series. As with many issues of this type, the 1884-S has a respectable mintage, in this case 3,200,000 pieces. The vast majority of survivors are worn, however, suggestive of widespread circulation for this issue -- an unusual situation for a silver dollar of this type. Indeed, the 1884-S is plentiful in circulated grades, and most collectors settle for an AU to represent the date in a Morgan dollar set. For the advanced numismatist the present lot offers the chance to acquire a solidly graded Mint State example with superior eye appeal relative to the MS-61 designation from PCGS. A lovely piece that is sure to catch the eye of astute bidders.
Provenance: From our sale of the High Rise Collection, June 2017 Baltimore Auction, lot 11249.
PCGS# 7156. NGC ID: 254P.
