1895-O PCGS AU-53.
|
|
Checkered Collection. 1895-O has a reputation as one of the classic grade-rarities in the series, being more common than its cousin 1895-S below MS-60 but then escalating immediately to key status in... |

1895-O PCGS AU-55.

1895-O PCGS XF-45.

Five 1895-O, as described.

1895-O and 1895-S, both F.
|
|
New World Estate. 1895-O appears to have slightly better-than-fine sharpness, but surfaces are a little pale, leading to an overall basic "fine" net grade. 1895-S definitely seems to meet VF-plus... |

1895-O PCGS AU-53.

1895-O NGC AU-55.

1895-O PCGS AU-50.

Sparkling bands of luster provide an appearance reminiscent of mint-state, and the reverse shows strong breast feathers as one would expect from AU-55. So why not the higher grade? Light hairlines... |

1895-O and 1903-S, both XF.

1895-O NGC AU-58.

1895-O is one of several Morgan dollar issues that isn't exactly cheap in circulated grades, but can readily be located up through the VF/XF level. For the collector of UNC sets, however, the price... |

1895-O and 1895-S, both VG.
|
|
1895-O is picture-perfect at VG-8, while the 1895-S actually looks fully "fine", and both are nice, original pieces with no problems. A better, honestly circulated two coin lot. |

1895-O PCGS AU-50.

|
1895-O and 1895-S, both XF details/cleaned.
|
|
Details are equivalent for this pair of keys, both at the XF level, though 1895-S has the stronger reverse for sure. Unfortunately, both coins are rather heavily cleaned and definitely too bright to... |

1895-O PCGS XF-40.

1895-O AU details/scratched.
|
|
The "scratch" noted at 11:00 of the reverse is more of a small gouge and just prominent enough to make inclusion in a slab unlikely. If not for that, the strong luster and barely worn details would... |

1895-O NGC AU-53.

1895-O XF/cleaned.
|
|
It is in the about-uncirculated range that the 1895-O Morgan dollar takes over (from the 1895-S) as the more difficult branch issue of the date, but because this example falls just shy of that... |

|
1895-O VG and 1895-S Good.

|
Both of these are original grey coins, the 1895-O grades VG-8, and the 1895-S is a just-barely-there G-4. Two coin lot. |

1895-O AU.
|
|
Brief perusal of price guides show 1895-O as a Morgan dollar issue that is already pricey in AU-50, and outrageously expensive in MS-60. In fact, it has by far one of the largest spreads between any... |

|
1895-O and 1895-S.

1895-O XF.
|

|
1895-O PCGS AU-53.
|
|
Obverse luster is more than adequate for the AU-53 grade, but the reverse carries a rather heavy load of golden tone, suppressing the important cartwheel effect to some degree. While each side bears... |

1895-O VF.
|

1895-O XF/cleaned.
|

|
1895-O XF.
|

|
1895-O XF details, cleaned.
|
|
It is instantly apparent that something is odd about the luster, and under a loupe, the effects of whizzing become obvious. The "flowlines" are entirely wrong, and the coin does not possess any... |

|
1895-O NGC MS-61.

1895-O Morgan dollar AU-55

1895-O Morgan dollar, PCGS AU-58

1895-O NGC AU-53.
