Rare Gem 1880-O Morgan Dollar
With Cartwheel Luster

1880-O $1 MS65 PCGS Secure. The 1880-O Morgan dollar issue, along with several other O-mints such as the 1886-O and 1896-O, is one that is only somewhat scarce in the lower Mint State levels of MS60 to MS62, yet very rare at the Gem level. This is due to a number of difficulties in one or more important criteria--strike, surfaces, luster, eye appeal--that keep most of the survivors from the MS65 grade. This Gem specimen is the rare exception, with flowing cartwheel luster over frosty, silver-white, relatively unabraded surfaces. The strike is excellent, even though showing minor softness over the ear, and the eye appeal is grand. Population: 28 in 65, 0 finer (8/10).(Registry values: P6, N4719)
