Description

1894-O Morgan Dollar, MS64
Conditionally Challenging Issue

1894-O $1 MS64 PCGS. This issue is one of the premier condition rarities in this widely pursued series. Writing in 1993, Bowers speculated that only 250-500 examples are extant in MS64. If accurate, it would suggest that the certified population reports are inflated by resubmissions.

Although not fully struck, this is a rather well-defined coin for the issue. The strike softness is confined to only the highest points of the hair around Liberty's ear and the eagle's breast and leg feathers. Both sides are dripping with mint frost and, were it not for a few inconsequential bagmarks, the smooth surfaces would easily qualify for an even higher grade. PCGS lists only 13 finer representatives (3/17).
