Description
1903-S Morgan Dollar, AU55
Rare VAM-2, Small S Variety
1903-S $1 Small S AU55 ANACS. VAM-2. A Top 100 Variety. This
rare and popular VAM variety is distinguished by the small
mintmark, which was intended for use on Barber quarters. Michael
Fey and Jeff Oxman consider the VAM-2 to be R.8 in AU58 and R.7 in
AU50.Only 1.2 million Morgan dollars were struck at the San Francisco Mint in 1903. The coins were stored at the mint and paid out over the years until the supply was exhausted in the late 1950s. The 1903-S was not represented in the great Treasury releases of the 1960s, and collectors have always viewed the issue as a scarce date in all grades. The present coin is lightly circulated, with only slight wear on the high points, and retains much of the original mint luster. The centers are mostly brilliant, yielding to light golden color at the margins. Sharp striking details are evident, with no large or distracting abrasions.
