Lot 1078
1893 Morgan Dollar. NGC graded MS-66. Fully white and frosty. The 1893 Philadelphia Mint issue is a scarcer date from the 1890s. It also happens to be one of the great unsung rarities in the series with an absolute full strike and pristine surfaces, the quality we present here. In fact, we have never seen quite as vibrant a coin with complete definition as this. So-called normal detail on all devices is the ball-and-chain of most 1893-P dollars; however, with the present specimen we see a wonderful exception in the broad regions of crisp strike found on Liberty and the eagle. A remarkable coin. Important as lying on the top tier of the grading platform and one of only 378,000 business strikes produced. Pop 2; none finer at either service (PCGS # 7220) .
Estimated Value $25,000 - 30,000.
