1898 Morgan Dollar ($1)

Frosty and bright, this coin shows vibrant cartwheel luster across largely white surfaces with a faint wash of pale champagne at the rims. The strike is crisp - hair detail and eagle’s breast feathers are well defined - and the fields are clean for the issue, with only a couple of light ticks on the cheek limiting a higher number. Eye appeal is decidedly high for the grade. Housed in a PCGS holder and blessed with a green CAC sticker that feels well deserved.
