1885-S and 1900-S, both PCGS MS-63.

|
Checkered Collection. 1885-S benefits from the lovely production quality of San Francisco dollars of the era, with long, swooping curves of pure white luster zooming through the fields. 1900-S is no... |

1885-S PCGS MS-65.

|
Clem Stevens Collection. Sensational luster exemplifies one of the classic characteristics for 1885-S, as long, shimmering bands loop and race through the fields. 1885-S gets some accolades as a... |

1885-S PCGS MS-65.

A more difficult piece in grades of MS-60 or better, 1885-S generally follows the prior half-dozen years in terms of "San Francisco quality" in terms of attractive luster. This example, though, does... |

1885-S NGC MS-60, 1887-S NGC MS-61, and 1889-S PCGS MS-62.
|
|
In date order, grades progress from MS-60 to 61 to 62 for this Morgan dollar trio. 1885-S features nicely dished luster but a lot of contact supports the claim for the basic mint-state grade. 1887-S... |

|
1885-S PCGS MS-64 (green label).
|
|
After the run of common issues from 1878 through 1882, San Francisco produced a two-headed monster with 1883-S and 1884-S, two dates that are difficult enough to find in any grade above AU, and... |

1885-S PCGS MS-64.
|

1885-S PCGS MS-63+ and 1890-O PCGS MS-64PL.

While only one is so designated, both of these Morgan dollars possess some prooflike attributes. 1885-S is graded MS-63+, and has significant reflectivity in the fields, though there isn't enough... |

1885-S NGC MS-64.

Shimmering, iceberg-white mint frost dominates the entire coin, although the eagle on the reverse is particularly well textured, imparting token prooflike character to that side. This coin looks like... |

1885/5-S (VAM-2) NGC MS-64.

1885-S PCGS MS-65.

1885-S is quite tough to find at the gem level, and overall is a "second level" coin in the Morgan dollar series, commanding a modest premium over common coins in nearly any grade. Peach-gold... |

1885-S PCGS MS-64.
|
|
The obverse is atypically the stronger side of this 1885-S, which means the overall appearance will actually seem a little nicer than the MS-64 grade to most observers, since they predictably tend to... |

1885-S NGC MS-64.
|
|
Glistening eye appeal is bolstered by an exceptional strike and a somewhat semi-prooflike obverse, while both sides remain entirely untoned. Trivial marks only account for the grade, including a... |

1885-S PCGS MS-65.

Patchy hairlines in the field area below Liberty’s chin affect the grade of the 1885-S. The 1888-S features some semi-prooflike characteristics that probably exaggerate slightly the scattering of... |
