Lot Description

1895-S Morgan Silver Dollar. MS-65 (NGC). Veiled in pale-silver and champagne-pink iridescence, both sides of this coin are vibrantly lustrous with a radiant semi-prooflike finish readily evident at all angles. Sharply struck throughout, and expectably smooth at the Gem level of preservation. A key-date Morgan Dollar in all grades, the 1895-S has an original mintage of just 400,000 pieces. High-grade Uncs such as this are nothing short of rare from a condition standpoint.
