1883-S Morgan Dollar. PCGS graded MS-63. A blast white example with shimmering luster. The otherwise satiny silver luster deepens to heavy frostiness in a few areas of the hair and cap, the eagle's wings and body. And so next to the devices, which are sharply struck on obverse and reverse, an exemplary coin from a mint that prided itself on bold strikes in this series (PCGS # 7148) .

Lot 1282
1884-S Morgan Dollar. NGC graded MS-61. An important year in the San Francisco mint series. Particularly difficult to locate in Mint State. A bright glittering specimen that spares no compromises with its rich silvery iridescence on both sides, the devices being slightly satin like. Strike is typically sharp for the issue, and only minor bagmarking occurs in the fields and on some of the devices.

In the 1960s the Treasury Department released millions of Brilliant Uncirculated Silver Dollars. There were virtually no 1884-S pieces found. In 1976, Revere Redfield's treasure trove of 475,000+ Dollars entered the market. Again, no 1884-S. In 1984, Continental Illinois Bank in Chicago had to be rescued by federal bailout. Upwards of 1.5 million Silver Dollars were found in its vaults! But, no 1884-S. For some inexplicable reason it seems all 1884-S Morgan Dollars went into circulation. Original bags were unknown and are unreported (unlike 1889-CC, for example, of which several bags are thought to be in the wings waiting for the right market conditions). What happened to them all? The mystery remains (PCGS # 7156) .
Estimated Value $5,000 - 5,500.

Lot 1283
1884-S Morgan Dollar. ANACS graded MS-60. A nice strike and mostly untoned. One slight diagonal line across the lower breast on the eagle. The 1884-S is an example where most of the issue reached the channels of commerce at the time of issue. The San Francisco Mint delivered over 3 million Morgan dollars in 1884. It seems that few of them avoided the rigors of circulation. Today, Brilliant Uncirculated pieces are rarely seen, seldom offered, and locating a true Uncirculated specimen in MS60 grade is one of the tasks facing the Morgan dollar specialist. This attractive representative is almost entirely brilliant with splashes of varying mint frost in select peripheral areas as well as on all the devices. Sharply defined throughout, and free of all but a few minor distracting marks (PCGS # 7156) .
Estimated Value $3,800 - 3,900.

1884-S Morgan Dollar. PCGS graded AU-58 PQ. A minute trace of toning here and there on both sides, the surface provides ample areas of mint lusters, only a few modestly out-of-the-way bagmarks seen only during the bright light of day and requiring a glass to make out. Furthermore, we can report a very sharp strike, a bold design, and endless originality that the every Morgan dollar collector can appreciate (PCGS # 7156) .
