Price history for items of the same classification:
Lot #AuctionCurrent Bid or Hammer PriceDescription
810The Collectors' Auction - 2014 on 10/17/2014$625.00
1879-O NGC MS-62 PL, and an 1880-S NGC MS-65 PL.
Placed side-by-side, it's plain that these are much closer in quality than one would expect of a three point difference in mint-state grade. Could the 1879-O be badly undergraded? It shows an...
811The Collectors' Auction - 2014 on 10/17/2014$475.00
1879-O NGC MS-64.
Checkered Collection. Possibly underrated within the silver dollar series, truly "nice" examples of 1879-O seldom appear on the market, and the price at the next grade reflects that. MS-64 quality...
812The Collectors' Auction - 2014 on 10/17/2014$550.00
1879-O NGC MS-64.
Blistering white flash detonates the eye-appeal, undiminished by time and completely untoned. Liberty sports a fairly clean cheek, nor are any marks to be found throughout, although delicate luster...
637The Collectors' Auction 2010 on 10/15/2010$1,150.00
1879-O, 1900-S, and 1904, all PCGS MS-64.
PCGS has offered a grade of MS-64 for each of these Morgan dollars, and though none is individually rare, at this level, they are somewhat better dates. Interestingly, their appearance progresses...
747The Midwest Summer Sale 2010 on 07/23/2010$600.00
1879-O and 1890-O PCGS MS-64.
Rollicking luster dominates this pair of New Orleans dollars, both graded MS-64 by PCGS. 1879-O has a crumb of greenish goober on the lower cheek and is generally blast white, while the 1890-O is...
596The Collectors' Auction 2008 on 10/17/2008$650.00
1879-O NGC MS-64.
It might be difficult to believe this Morgan dollar isn't undergraded until one notices the large increase in value between MS-64 (this coin's grade) and MS-65. It is about a 600% jump! Is there any...
597The Collectors' Auction 2008 on 10/17/2008$390.00
1879-O NGC MS-64.
Charming, silky mint luster flows effortlessly off of either side, favorably accented with peripheral color. A little better struck than the typical New Orleans dollar.
598The Collectors' Auction 2008 on 10/17/2008$3,100.00
1879-O NGC MS-65.
From the standpoint of preservation and surface quality, it takes but little time spent with this coin to know for sure that it is a solid "gem", layered in dense, white mint frost and filled with...
719The Collectors' Auction 2007 on 10/19/2007$350.00
1879-O NGC MS-64.
Scintillating mint luster shimmers and shakes from any viewing angle, an effect that is undoubtedly derived from the abundant mint frost that engulfs every square millimeter of this white coin. ...
720The Collectors' Auction 2007 on 10/19/2007$350.00
1879-O PCGS MS-64.
Balanced mint frost occupies the entirety of both sides, with the exception of a grease streak on the wreath left of the mintmark. A strong die clash has resulted in a vertical spike on the reverse...
707The Midwest Summer Sale 2007 on 07/27/2007$120.00
1879-O NGC MS-63.
A pretty coin with typical marks for the MS-63. What is not typical for the grade is the presence of violet, violet-red, deep blue, and russet toning that has formed around the peripheries of both...
763The Midwest Winter Sale 2007 on 02/09/2007$190.00
Two 1879-O Morgan Silver Dollars. MS-62.
I am guessing that these two coins were on the ends of the same roll. They have almost identical toning and very similar die characteristics. They are dripping with luster and have minimal marks.
613The Collector's Auction on 10/20/2006$390.00
1879-O MS-64.
Rich blue, violet, and russet hues cling to the obverse and reverse peripheries. The detail is impeccable on both sides, and the luster flows in abundance.
719The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/17/2006$395.00
1879-O NGC MS-64.
Nuances of deep russet encircles this piece's satinlike surfaces. An exceptionally clean cheek is observed on Liberty, for this Branch Mint issue, as well as bold design element details on both...
