Description
1889-S $1 MS65 ANACS. Once considered to be the rarest of all Morgan dollars, until large quantities in storage at the San Francisco Mint were released during the 1940s and early 1950s. The Redfield Hoard (1976) is said to have added thousands more. While readily available in lower Mint State grades, the '89-S becomes relatively scarce in Full Gem. The MS65 specimen offered here has well struck design elements, though the hair above Liberty's ear is weak. The surfaces exhibit strong luster, and are imbued with dappled blue, golden-orange, and lavender toning around the obverse border, and olive-green at the reverse border. A couple of minute marks on Liberty's cheek, and on the eagle's breast, are mentioned for accuracy.From The Harry Berenthal Collection.(#7194) (Registry values: P6, N1793)
