Magnificent 1880-O Morgan Dollar, MS65

1880-O $1 MS65 PCGS. The 1880-O Morgan silver dollar boasts a substantial mintage of 5.3 million pieces. In spite of this large production figure, this date is quite scarce at the Gem level. In A Guide Book of Morgan Silver Dollars, Q. David Bowers estimates a field population of only 80-150 examples in MS65 grade. Much of the original mintage saw limited circulation near the time of production, accounting for the scarcity of higher Mint State coins today. The obverse is toned golden-brown and the reverse is nearly brilliant with a few dabs of peripheral color. The design features show nearly full striking definition, with fine detail on all design elements. The problem-free surfaces exhibit rich, satiny luster, and overall eye appeal is outstanding. Only 39 coins have been certified at the MS65 level at NGC and PCGS combined, with none finer (12/08).
