1902 Morgan Silver Dollar. Proof-65 (PCGS). CAC. Delicate iridescent gold toning blankets surfaces from which a brightly reflective finish shines at all viewing angles. A smartly impressed, carefully preserved specimen that is sure to please. From a mintage of 777 pieces, one of the lowest among Proof silver dollars of the Morgan design type. The 1902 is the first Proof Morgan dollar issue for which Mint employees lightly polished the recessed areas of the dies, the typical example displaying a universally brilliant finish without the cameo contrast seen on most earlier dated Proofs of this type. The 1903 and 1904 were also produced in brilliant format. Scarce when compared to many Proof Morgan dollar issues from the 1880s and 1890s, the 1902 is quite rare with the Gem-quality surfaces offered here. From the Silver Springs Collection.
