Description
Splendid 1893 Morgan Dollar, MS65
1893 $1 MS65 PCGS. Bowers (1993) advises cherrypicking for quality when it comes to the 1893. The present Gem is certainly among the more appealing survivors of this issue, with sharp striking detail throughout and a pleasing satin finish. The obverse is champagne tinged with some more extensive color along the left border. The reverse, on the other hand, is richly toned with blushes of cobalt-blue, lavender, and apricot patina over a base of medium gray color. The reverse is lightly die doubled, most noticeably along the bottom of the wreath. PCGS has only graded four examples of this issue finer than MS65 (8/08).
