Lot Description

1890-CC Morgan Silver Dollar. VAM-4. Top 100 Variety. Tail Bar. MS-62 (NGC). This popular variety derives its name from a prominent reverse die gouge from the lower portion of the wreath to the junction between the eagle's tailfeathers and the arrow feathers. A satiny BU, the present example is brilliant and untoned with a vibrant finish to both sides. Sharply struck, as well, and free of individually distracting abrasions.
