Description

1893-S Morgan Silver Dollar. AU-53 (PCGS).
This visually appealing, technically impressive example reveals just a trace of light rub to the high points that hardly interferes with a sharply executed strike. Friction in the fields is also commensurate with the assigned grade, although plenty of flashy mint luster remains to greet the viewer as the coin rotates under a light. Brilliant silver surfaces are attractive in all regards. The 1893-S is a legendary Morgan dollar that ranks as the absolute rarity among circulation strikes of this type. While survivors are eagerly sought at all levels of preservation, for discerning collectors only coins in the finest circulated and Mint State grades will do. This appealing About Uncirculated survivor will certainly have no difficulty finding its way into an advanced collection.
PCGS# 7226. NGC ID: 255U.
From the Jones Collection.
