Lot 4125
1894 Morgan Dollar. PCGS graded MS-65. CAC Approved. Frosty and white. Well struck. The 1894 Morgan, one of a mere 110,000 pieces made, is the most difficult Philadelphia Morgan to find in Gem condition. There is no reason to chop words, we'll strike right to the heart of things: even the storied 1895 Proof silver dollar in Gem condition appears to be more common than this piece! Collectors of high value grades will find it particularly desirable, since the surface is exquisite, fully frosty and white. In Mint State 65, one expects a few of the usual bagmarks and light rim nicks. Gems, of course, cannot be perfect unless they rise to the Olympian level of MS70. Yet this particular MS65 is decidedly above the norm. Those who seek the utmost in special coins will observe this amazing Gem example with the awe and reverence its deserves. Again, the coin displays white creamy-smooth luster, centers are full and well defined, without even a hint of toning, not even insubstantial peripheral color. All in all, one of the most gorgeous Gem 1894 Morgans that we have ever offered in this grade. We are sure it will end up as a focal point in a Registry Set of silver dollars. Pop 19; 4 finer in 66 (PCGS # 7228) .
Estimated Value $12,000 - 13,000.
