Lot 3091		1886-O Morgan Dollar. PCGS graded MS-62. Mostly untoned. Satiny white luster covers the fields of this handsome coin.

Lot 3107		1888-O Morgan Dollar. PCGS graded MS-66. Delicate golden toning around the borders. Likely an early strike from fresh dies, judging from the details. The surfaces are satin smooth. This mint's quality control weakened greatly in 1886-87, improved again with this 1888-O issue, and then declined once more for 1889-1897.

Lot 3115		1889-CC Morgan Dollar. NGC graded AU-55. Untoned.
