1890 Morgan Silver Dollar. MS-65+ (PCGS). Gold Shield Holder.This richly and handsomely toned Gem exhibits mottled patina that includes shades of olive, powder blue and silver-rose. Boldly struck with soft mint luster and an expectably smooth appearance for the assigned grade. Thanks to the widespread release of examples from government storage from the early 1940s through 1964, the 1890 is a plentiful Morgan dollar in most Mint State grades. Few survivors grade finer than the basal MS-65 level, however, confirming the conditionally scarce nature of this premium quality example.PCGS Population: 48; 5 finer in this category (all MS-66).
