Description
1879-S Morgan Dollar, MS68
None Certified Finer
1879-S $1 MS68 NGC. This Superb Gem is the more-common
Reverse of 1879 variety. For more than 60 years, most 1879-S
dollars sat in storage at "the Granite Lady" (the San Francisco
Mint). Massive releases in the early 1940s and 1960s increased the
availability of high-grade pieces, but few can match the aesthetic
appeal of this brilliant dollar. A Superb Gem in every way, the
reflective fields emphasize fully struck, frosted devices. A mere
hint of almond tone at the upper obverse rim and a single light
abrasion in the left obverse field are the only signs of its
dormancy in a cloth bag. Otherwise, the coin is as fresh as the day
it was struck. Neither service has certified a numerically finer
example (3/14).From the M L Moser Collection, #1 NGC Morgan Dollar Registry Set.(Registry values: P1, N1793)
