1895-O Morgan Silver Dollar. MS-62+ (PCGS). CAC. The offered example is an outstanding strike and condition rarity for the key date 1895-O Morgan silver dollar. Pearlescent silver-grey luster is accented by subtle bronze iridescence at the borders. The fields are remarkably smooth and the eye appeal is exceptional for this grade level. Approval by CAC confirms the overall superior quality. It is interesting to note that the 1895-O Morgan dollar is the single circulation strike issue in the series not known to have been part of any Treasury releases in bag quantity. Considerably more rare in Mint State than its mintage of 450,000 pieces suggests, typical survivors are found in EF to AU grades. Mint State coins have always been elusive and often display poor striking quality and/or unattractive surfaces. This is a truly impressive example at the assigned grade level that is worthy of the strongest bids. From the Dazzling Rarities Collection.
