Description
Finest Certified 1878 Weak 7/8 Tailfeathers Morgan Dollar
1878 Morgan Silver Dollar. 7/8 Tailfeathers. Weak. MS-66+ (NGC).
Fully struck with razor sharp detail from the rims to the centers, this beautiful Gem also sports intense mint luster in a frosty texture. Predominantly brilliant and expertly preserved, blushes of delicate iridescent toning hug the denticles to further enhance the eye appeal. Close inspection with a loupe reveals traces of four underfeathers at the base of the eagle's tail, one of which is fairly bold and the other three faint. This is a popular transitional reverse hub variety from the first year of Morgan dollar coinage, and it is represented here by the finest Mint State survivor known to PCGS and NGC. It is a beautiful coin that belongs in an exceptional Morgan dollar set.
PCGS# 7070. NGC ID: 2TY3.
Combined PCGS and NGC Population: just 1; 0 finer.
