Desirable 1893-S Morgan Dollar, AU50

1893-S $1 AU50 PCGS. The 1893-S is one of the most desirable issues in the Morgan dollar series. PCGS/NGC population figures indicate that the majority of pieces fall into the Good to Extremely Fine grade range, with a particularly high concentration in the Very Fine levels of preservation. David Bowers (2007) says of VF examples: "Most such pieces circulated in the American West, and for an appropriate but apparently restricted time to bring then to this grade."
AU 1893-S specimens such as the present coin are an excellent choice for the collector working on a Morgan dollar collection. Luster resides in the recessed areas of its silver-gray surfaces that exhibit suitably defined design motifs. A few minor circulation marks do not detract from the coin's rather pleasing appearance.(Registry values: P10, N4719)
