View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $546
Lot 1202		1888-O Morgan Dollar. PCGS graded MS-65. Well struck and mostly untoned. The surfaces are semi prooflike. Especially clean cheek. Fully lustrous Gems are a rarity nowadays -- an important and desirable feature for this often not all that well preserved '88-O issue -- the head of Liberty and the eagle both display dominant pearl-white brilliance (PCGS # 7184) . Estimated Value $300 - 350. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $483
Lot 1203		1889 Morgan Dollar. NGC graded MS-66. Old holder. Lovely rainbow toning on both sides. Dazzling, intensely frosty surfaces are free from all but the most inconsequential blemishes.

Lot 1204		1889-CC Morgan Dollar. NGC graded MS-62. Well struck, untoned and frosty. Popular Key Date and always in great demand. 1889-CC is legendary in the Morgan dollar series. All serious collectors have trouble locating a strong example for their date sets. This one is a very choice example of the date. To begin at the beginning, only 350,000 were struck, and precious few were saved in Mint State. It is unknown how many were found in Treasury bags, perhaps not even a full bag since fewer than 550 have been graded in Mint State by PCGS and NGC. Of the ones graded, this is "standard quality" for Mint condition, though lacking the usual prooflike reflection. A magnifying glass will note some contact marks from bag handling, nothing deep or distracting. If your collection requires a solidly graded coin, one that is problem-free, then look no further than this lot and give it the strong bid it deserves. Pop 95; 53 in 63, 41 in 64, 4 in 65, 1 in 67. (PCGS # 7190) . Estimated Value $15,000 - 17,000. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $24,150
Lot 1205		1889-CC Morgan Dollar. PCGS graded AU-53. Nice golden toning interspersed with natural "old silver" gray tone, and quite pleasing for the grade. No serious nicks or other problems and plenty of luster remains. Always in great demand as the key Carson City mint dollar (PCGS # 7190) . Estimated Value $4,000 - 4,400. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $4,140
Lot 1206		1890-CC Morgan Dollar. PCGS graded MS-64. Well struck with attractive antique toning on both sides. As with the other CC-mint dates around it, the 1890-CC is famous for its thick, rich luster, with this particular coin naturally toned to old-silver hues through which the silver color still persists (PCGS # 7198) . Estimated Value $1,200 - 1,250. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $1,323
Lot 1207		1890-CC Morgan Dollar. NGC graded MS-63 Deep Mirror Prooflike PQ. A well struck example with flashy white deep mirror surfaces. An exceptionaly choice coin for the grade thus our Premium Quality designation. Estimated Value $1,000 - 1,100. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $1,208
Lot 1208		1891 Morgan Dollar. PCGS graded Proof 62. Old green holder. Attractively toned. A lightly hazy array of toning shades overlaid on the surfaces of this handsome Proof Morgan silver dollar. We note an area of striking weakness on the hair above Liberty's ear, but the present prize is still beautiful (PCGS # 7326) . Estimated Value $1,300 - 1,400. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $1,553
Lot 1209		1891-CC Vam 3, Spitting Eagle. NGC graded MS-64 PQ. Well struck, frosty and blast white. A Premium Quality example. The 1891-CC VAM-3 coin has a small die gouge in front of the eagle's mouth giving this variety its nickname "spitting eagle." Pop 282; 31 in 65; 1 in 66 (PCGS # 7206) . Estimated Value $1,200 - 1,300. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $3,450
Lot 1210		1891-CC Morgan Dollar. PCGS graded MS-64. A hint of light golden toning rests around the borders. Well struck and intensely frosty (PCGS # 7206) . Estimated Value $900 - 950. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $920
Lot 1211		1891-CC. Spitting Eagle VAM-3. NGC graded MS-62. Light golden toning atop a combination of semi-reflective surface and frosted devices (PCGS # 7206) . Estimated Value $400 - 500. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $414
Lot 1212		1891-S Morgan Dollar. PCGS graded MS-64 PQ. Flashy white coin. About as close to gem as can be desired for the MS64 grade, hence our Premium Quality notification, this robust 1891-S shows extra crisp detail on all relief portions (PCGS # 7210) . Estimated Value $200 - 220. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $242
Lot 1213		1892 Morgan Dollar. PCGS graded Proof 64 Cameo. Mostly untoned. A satiny topped choice Proof with energetic mirror reflection in the fields capped off by brilliant silvery frosted "cameo" devices -- the kind of beauty and quality that seems to take a firm grip on the aesthetic sense of bidders to make them want to increase their bids as though by subtle hypnosis! 1,245 struck. Pop 18; 16 finer; 4 in 65; 9 in 66; 1 in 67; 2 in 68. (PCGS # 87327) . Estimated Value $3,000 - 3,300. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Unsold
Lot 1214		1892-CC Morgan Dollar. NGC graded MS-62. Well struck, frosty and untoned, a desirable scarcer CC-mint dollar from this fascinating Western mint. Carson City's dollars tend to have extremely white, frosted luster that give them a unique quality, an endearing quality that has attracted collectors for generations (PCGS # 7214) . Estimated Value $1,200 - 1,250. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $1,351
Lot 1215		1892-CC Morgan Dollar. MS-60 Plus. Well struck, untoned with brilliant semi prooflike surfaces on both sides. We note some milling marks on the cheek and some light hairlines scattered about. Estimated Value $800 - 850. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $863
Lot 1216		1892-O Morgan Dollar. NGC graded MS-64. A blast white beauty with remarkably clean surfaces for the grade -- far more attractive than most other 1892-O survivors (PCGS # 7216) . Estimated Value $450 - 500. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $661
Lot 1217		1892-S Morgan Dollar NCS Unc Details. Altered Surfaces Nice mirror surfaces and boldly struck. In grades up to the About Uncirculated level of preservation, the 1892-S is not a particularly rare issue to locate despite its low mintage of 1.2 million pieces. An accurately graded Mint State will, however, set collectors back a decent amount of money, since Mint State examples are rare. This piece is not plagued by excessive bagmarks, although the surfaces definitely have been worked on at one time. A coin, once viewed by interested parties (and we recommend viewing it first), that should see elevated levels of bidding among Morgan dollar specialists (PCGS # 7218) . Estimated Value $10,000 - 12,000. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Unsold
Lot 1218		1892-S Morgan Dollar. NGC graded AU-55. Well struck with plenty of mint luster still remaining. This is a carefully preserved example that will please just about every collector on the planet. Scarce date in high grade, as well, since the preponderance of the issue seems to have passed into circulation (very few Mint States were ever found in Treasury hoards). 1892-S is among the most famous S-mint Morgan silver dollars (PCGS # 7218) . Estimated Value $1,600 - 1,700. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $2,070
Lot 1219		1893-CC Morgan Dollar. NGC graded MS-63 PQ. Well struck and blast white with exceptional luster and an unusually clean cheek on Liberty for the grade. Most examples of the 1893-CC Morgan dollar are heavily bagmarked, however, this is a wonderful exception. Both sides display brilliant luster and devices are well struck. A Premium Quality example that should realize a premium price. Pop 410; 152 in 64; 7 in 65 (PCGS # 7222) . Estimated Value $4,000 - 4,500. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $7,475
Lot 1220		1893-CC Morgan Dollar. PCGS graded MS-63. Mostly untoned with semi reflective fields. Intense but still satiny frost on the devices, the coin lightly scuffed to where a MS64 grade isn't quite available, yet the silver radiance persists almost undiminished, especially on the rolling cheek of Liberty. One would be hard put to add more about the mint bloom. As for the strike, the coin was struck with typical inexactness in the centers, although throughout the remaining areas, full definition in the hair curls and leafy ornamentation of Liberty's crown confirms the grade (PCGS # 7222) . Estimated Value $4,000 - 4,200. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Unsold
Lot 1221		1893-CC Morgan Dollar. PCGS graded MS-61. Housed in an old green label PCGS holder, this sparkling frosty mint example is untoned. The grade is derived from the few small abrasions that are scattered over each side since the surface is otherwise very choice. Rare and always in demand as an important semi-key date (PCGS # 7222) . Estimated Value $2,800 - 3,000. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $3,220
Lot 1222		1893-CC Morgan Dollar. NGC graded VF-20. A problem-free example for the grade with only a couple of small chatters on the neck. Smooth even wear, natural light "old silver" color (PCGS # 7222) . Estimated Value $500 - 525. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $518
Lot 1223		1893-S Morgan Dollar. NGC graded AU-53. Light iridescent toning creases the borders. A key date that is always in demand. If you are the sort of collector who has sat by for years in mute admiration while successful bidders acquire coins like this handsome 1893-S, now may be the time to act, since the coin has nothing troubling it, and ones inability to find anything even approaching a damaging mark lands it near the front of the line. In a new NGC 4 prong holder (PCGS # 7224) . Estimated Value $17,000 - 18,000. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Unsold
Lot 1224		1893-S Morgan Dollar. NGC graded AU-50. Mostly untoned with a ring of delicate tone resting about the outside borders. Popular key date. Our consignor has a special liking to 1893-S and 1894-P Morgan dollars, plus an eagle's eye for quality and originality, as exemplified here. Sharp devices, clean, damage-free surface, and objective quality one can spot from across the room. If you have gone numbly around the aisles of America's coin shows looking for a choice AU representation of this rare issue, then look no further. Mintage: 100,000 (PCGS # 7224) . Estimated Value $16,000 - 17,000. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $16,100
Lot 1225		1893-S Morgan Dollar. NGC graded EF-45. Light original toning. Popular key date. A high degree of original light-gray surface color graces the choice fields and devices on this elusive '93-S dollar. Notice how the face is devoid of deep circulation marks; as well, the rims are blemish-free (PCGS # 7224) . Estimated Value $9,000 - 10,000. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Unsold
Lot 1226		1894 Morgan Dollar. NGC graded MS-64. Frosty and untoned. Popular low mintage date. The 1894 Morgan, one of only 110,000 pieces made, is the most difficult Philadelphia Morgan to find in such choice condition. There is no reason to chop words, we'll strike right to the heart of things: even the best silver dollar collections rarely have an example of this issue in Gem condition. Collectors of high value grades will find it particularly desirable, since the surface is exquisite, fully frosty and white. Almost MS65 quality in fact. One expects a few of the usual bagmarks and light rim nicks. MS64s, of course, cannot be perfect. Yet this particular coin is decidedly above the norm. Those who seek the utmost beauty in their coins will observe this handsome example with the respect it deserves. Again, the coin displays white creamy-smooth luster, centers are full, without the usual mushiness on the hair and eagle's breast. All in all, a splendid 1894 Morgan that bidders may have to compete for aggressively to acquire. We are sure it will end up as a focal point in a high-grade set of silver dollars (PCGS # 7228) . Estimated Value $7,500 - 8,000. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $7,763
Lot 1227		1894 Morgan Dollar. NGC graded MS-61. Untoned. Popular low mintage date. A nice, lustrous coin with white clear surfaces surrounding Liberty. Several abrasions are noticeable on the cheek and eyebrow and the reverse has a small mark on the lower breast. Distinguished by attractive, smooth satiny luster on both sides. For those with the perseverance to have bided their time waiting for a nice representative Mint State of this scarce 1894-P, now is the time to bid (PCGS # 7228) . Estimated Value $2,300 - 2,400. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $2,300
Lot 1228		1894 Morgan Dollar. NGC graded Each AU-55. Group of 3, all untoned. Lot of 3 coins. Estimated Value $5,000 - 5,250. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $4,830

Lot 1230		1894 Morgan Dollar. NGC graded AU-53. Nice white coin with extensive areas of mint frostiness everywhere.
