Description
Silky-Smooth Gem 1892-O Morgan Dollar
1892-O Morgan Silver Dollar. MS-66 (NGC).
Remarkably well preserved for this challenging New Orleans Mint issue, both sides are free of all but the most trivial marks that barely deny a pristine appearance during in-hand viewing. Sharply struck in most areas, the emerging to bold definition in the centers is superior for an issue that is usually quite blunt in these areas. Untoned surfaces are brightly lustrous and highly appealing. Per Wayne Miller (1982), "The typical 1892-O silver dollar in among the most consistently poorly struck of the Morgan dollars." In addition, most uncirculated coins are in lower grades through MS-64 and display indifferent luster and heavily abraded surfaces. Well struck and attractive Gems such as this are seldom offered, especially above the basal MS-65 level.
PCGS# 7216. NGC ID: 255N.
NGC Census: 7; 0 finer. The corresponding PCGS Population is 11/2 (MS-67 finest).
