1878-S Silver Dollar, MS67
Fully Struck, Smooth Surfaces

1878-S $1 MS67 NGC. The 1878-S through 1882-S silver dollars were saved in bag quantity, since many more were struck than were needed in the Western economy. The Treasury vaults were finally emptied more than 80 years after the present Superb Gem was struck. Examples abound in MS62 to MS65 grades, but MS67 examples are rare, and only a handful of pieces are graded numerically finer. This needle-sharp and highly lustrous coin is remarkably free from contact. Certified in a circa-2000 holder. Light chestnut-gold toning visits the reverse periphery. Census: 44 in 67 (1 in 67+, 7 in 67 ), 0 finer (11/20).
From The Prichard Collection. (Registry values: P2, N2998)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 253R, PCGS# 7082, Greysheet# 7448)
