Elusive Premium Gem 1885-S Dollar

1885-S $1 MS66 PCGS. Fully white and radiantly bright, this Morgan dollar condition rarity is destined for the specialist who cannot get enough frost and flash. This example is fully struck, with few impairments of any sort. The numerous 1885-S dollars in the extensive Redfield hoard did not materially increase the number of full Gem examples, since storage and handling of the Redfield coins left the majority in MS60 to MS63 condition. In MS66, this is a significant, sharply struck piece that provides all the quality that could be asked for. Population: 26 in 66, 2 finer (3/09).(Registry values: P5, N2998)
