1879-O $1, DMPL MS (PCGS#97091)

Spring 2023 U.S. Coins Auction

Lot Description: 1879-O Morgan Silver Dollar. MS-63 DMPL (PCGS). CAC. The fields of this incredible Morgan dollar are deeply mirrored and icy, sharply contrasting the design elements blanketed by dense and frosty luster. Impressively rendered, the hair over Liberty's ear is as intricate as one could desire, matched by strong definition to the eagle's breast feathers on the opposite side. Handsomely preserved and delivering stunning eye appeal throughout. Production of the 1879-O Morgan dollars marked the reopening of the New Orleans Mint following the Civil War. Struck to a quantity of nearing 2.9 million examples, this issue is readily available overall, but remarkably scarce with prooflike qualities.
