Description
1880-O Morgan Silver Dollar. MS-64 DPL (NGC).
Superior striking quality and surface preservation for this challenging early New Orleans Mint Morgan dollar issue. The finish is remarkably reflective in the fields, which areas contrast markedly with thickly frosted, smartly impressed design elements. Brilliant and visually appealing, there is much to recommend this coin to advanced collectors of prooflike Morgan dollars. As observed by Wayne Miller in his famous Morgan and Peace Dollar Textbook, "Many prooflike 1880-O's are cameos; when not heavily bagmarked, they command a significant premium." This is just such a coin, especially since there are no MS-65 DMPL/DPL examples known to PCGS or NGC.
PCGS# 97115. NGC ID: 2543.
NGC Census: 34; 0 finer in this category. The corresponding PCGS Population is 51/3 (MS-64+ DMPL finer at that service).
