1882-S Silver Dollar, MS64
Housed in a Black First-Generation Holder

1882-S $1 MS64 NGC. NGC was the first major competitor of PCGS. The grading firm began operations in September 1987, and probably selected black as the color of the plastic holder because it made the coins look better. The NGC logo appears on the obverse, while the date, mintmark, grade, and certification ID are on the reverse. The holders were soon modified to white, and many examples in the black holders were broken out in search of an upgrade. Today, only about 30 first-generation black holders are confirmed. As for the coin itself, it is a conservatively graded and lustrous Morgan dollar type coin that has a sharp strike and light peripheral golden-brown toning.(Registry values: P1, N208)
