Scarce Gem 1891 Morgan Dollar

1891 $1 MS65 PCGS. According to Bowers: "Striking of the 1891 Philadelphia Mint dollars varies from flatly struck to excellent, with the typical coin being in the poorly struck category." This Gem example is one with a flat strike, which is especially evident on the eagle's breast. The obverse striking definition is better, and only a touch weak just above Liberty's ear. The brilliant, snow-white surfaces are highly lustrous and flashy, with just a couple of tiny marks that prevent an even loftier grade designation.
