Morgan Silver Dollar

Lovely Near-Gem Mint State 1894 Morgan Dollar

1894 Morgan Silver Dollar. MS-64+ (PCGS).

A beautifully and originally toned example with blushes of vivid champagne-pink and powder blue iridescence scattered about the peripheries. Delicate golden-apricot tinting extends into the centers, and the mint luster is universally intense on both sides. Virtually full striking detail adds to the appeal of this lovely coin. At just 110,000 pieces produced, the 1894 has the lowest mintage among circulation strike Morgan dollars from the Philadelphia Mint. It is a key date issue in this widely collected series, and is the rarest Philadelphia Mint Morgan in Mint State after only the challenging 1901. When offered in Uncirculated condition, the 1894 is usually found in MS-60 to low end MS-64 grades and often has subdued luster and/or (numerous) detracting marks. Very few examples possess the strong technical quality and eye appeal of this premium near-Gem, one of the finest 1894 dollars that we have handled in recent memory.
