NGC US Coin Census for Morgan Dollars (1878-1921)

Owner Comments:

I acquired this coin on 8/12/2007. The NGC population is 1 of 90 with 152 graded higher as of 4/2008. There were only 285 coins of that year and (GSA)pedigree graded by NGC. It is a nice coin, well struck on obverse and reverse with an attractive luster.

It is the key coin in the Morgan Dollar Series. Also, it is the second rarest of all Carson City Morgan Dollars (after 1889 CC). The mintage for that year was 750,000. The GSA sales included only 4,123 pieces.
