Description

Desirable Gem 1894 Dollar

MS-65 (PCGS) Just 10 Graded Finer at PCGS

1894 Morgan Silver Dollar. MS-65 (PCGS).

A fully brilliant and untoned Gem with uniform, frosty luster across both sides. Nicely struck for the issue and very attractive under scrutiny. At just 110,000 pieces produced, the 1894 has the lowest mintage among business strike Morgan dollars from the Philadelphia Mint. It is a key-date issue in this widely collected series, and is the rarest P-Mint Morgan in Mint State after only the challenging 1901. When offered in Mint State, the 1894 is usually found in MS-60 to MS-64 grades and often has subdued luster or detracting abrasions. Very few examples possess the strong technical quality and eye appeal that confirm the present example as one of the finest 1894 dollars that we have handled in recent memory. In fact, just 10 examples have been certified finer by PCGS.

PCGS# 7228. NGC ID: 255V.

PCGS Population: 27; 10 finer.

From the Dazzling Rarities Collection.
