Morgan Silver Dollar
1902 Morgan Silver Dollar. Proof-65 (PCGS).
Lovely iridescent toning in silver-rose blankets both sides of this fully impressed, highly reflective specimen. The 1902 is the first Proof Morgan dollar issue for which Mint employees lightly polished the recessed areas of the dies, the typical example displaying a universally brilliant finish without the cameo contrast seen on most earlier dated Proofs of this type. The 1903 and 1904 were also produced in brilliant format. Scarce when compared to many Proof Morgan dollar issues from the 1880s and 1890s, the 1902 is particularly elusive with the Gem quality offered here.
PCGS# 7337. NGC ID: 2822.
From the Monterrey Collection.
Estimate: $4000
