820 | The Collectors' Auction - 2014 on 10/17/2014 | $450.00 |
1880-O, 1891-O, and 1892, all certified MS-61.
|
Checkered Collection. Each seems to be rather nice for MS-61 given the very ample degrees of luster and reasonable overall definition. A brief listing shows: 1880-O (PCGS , moderately abraded by... |
|
821 | The Collectors' Auction - 2014 on 10/17/2014 | $290.00 |
1880-O PCGS MS-63.
|
Checkered Collection. Extremely sharp details belie the New Orleans strike for this somewhat tougher choice silver dollar. Ever strand of hair flows completely over Liberty's ear, the eagle's breast... |
|
861 | The Collectors' Auction 2013 on 10/18/2013 | $400.00 |
1880-O NGC AU-55, and an 1894-S PCGS AU-53.
|
B. B. Consignment. 1880-O shows gleaming steel-white surfaces and considerable mint luster reminiscent of an UNC coin. 1894-S is the more important piece, as it can become quite expensive in UNC,... |
|
862 | The Collectors' Auction 2013 on 10/18/2013 | $1,350.00 |
1880-O PCGS MS-64.
|
A classic and readily recognized condition rarity in the series, 1880-O is expensive enough in MS-64, but skyrockets to the price of a car just one point higher. I'll keep my wheels, thank you! ... |
|
863 | The Collectors' Auction 2013 on 10/18/2013 | $1,400.00 |
1880-O NGC MS-64.
|
Difficult enough in MS-64, 1880-O escalates to near-absurd pricing levels just one point higher. Astute bidders may gladly concede one point in grade to save twenty-five thousand dollars when this... |
|
969 | The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/26/2013 | $425.00 |
1880-O and 1892, both PCGS MS-62.
|
1880-O shows spangling white luster and really not too many marks on the cheek for the MS-62 grade. Really, it might look just fine even at MS-63. The 1892 features unusually thick patina that has... |
|
704 | The Collectors' Auction 2012 on 10/05/2012 | $180.00 |
1880-O NGC MS-62.
|
The value of 1880-O escalates rather quickly above MS-62, this being the final grade level at which affordable examples may still be found. Substantial prooflike character emanates from both sides of... |
|
705 | The Collectors' Auction 2012 on 10/05/2012 | $1,450.00 |
1880-O PCGS MS-64.
|
Even at MS-60, 1880-O cannot be considered remotely difficult to locate for anyone's set, but the story changes in higher grades. Price guides show a severely escalating rise in value at MS-62,... |
|
706 | The Collectors' Auction 2012 on 10/05/2012 | $1,550.00 |
1880-O PCGS MS-64.
|
Obviously very close to MS-65 quality -- and the corresponding $30,000 price tag -- this 1880-O delivers blazing luster and virtually clean fields, a thin luster graze at lower left being hardly... |
|
839 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2011 on 07/29/2011 | $650.00 |
1880-O PCGS MS-63, and an 1890-O PCGS MS-64.
|
A pair of "sweet spot" coins are included here -- dollars that are graded at a price point right before a large jump in cost. Aside from a taste of orange in the obverse left field, 1880-O is mostly... |
|
840 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2011 on 07/29/2011 | $525.00 |
1880-O NGC MS-63 Star.
|
Considerable album tone sweeps around both sides in concentric fashion, propagating rapidly through bands of sea-green, cobalt, cinnamon-gold and sunset-orange colors, relieved in the central areas by... |
|
841 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2011 on 07/29/2011 | $1,300.00 |
1880-O PCGS MS-64.
|
Considering the mint of origin, strike quality is almost unbelievably sharp, with the individual strands of hair over Liberty's ear delineated, and every one of the eagle's breast feathers well... |
|
642 | The Collectors' Auction 2010 on 10/15/2010 | $1,100.00 |
1880-O MS-64.
|
Because so many New Orleans dollars are common issues in the series, it is easy to forget that a few are condition rarities and quite difficult to locate "nice". 1880-O is one such issue, terribly... |
|
643 | The Collectors' Auction 2010 on 10/15/2010 | $1,225.00 |
1880-O PCGS MS-64.
|
1880-O is one of the issues that exists by the many thousands in lower grades up through the basic BU level, but rises exponentially in scarcity at and above MS-64, and indeed, that is the grade which... |
|
730 | The Collectors' Auction 2007 on 10/19/2007 | $400.00 |
1880-O NGC MS-63.
|
It is difficult to assess precisely why NGC assigned so conservative a grade to such an obviously attractive coin. It is true that there is a huge jump in value between MS-63 and MS-64, but your... |

1880-O NGC MS-63 PL.

Encapsulated in an older style NGC holder, this superb New Orleans dollar has stark white design motifs that are superbly offset by an exquisite mirrorlike surface aspect. Furthermore, this visual... |

722 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2007 on 07/27/2007 | $1,050.00 |
1880-O PCGS MS-64.

Observe this coin carefully, and be sure to note how much better the strike is than the typical New Orleans product. Both sides have a nice cameo effect, with the reverse being somewhat stronger. A... |
|
626 | The Collector's Auction on 10/20/2006 | $300.00 |
1880-O PCGS MS-63.
|
Light golden tones adorn the denticles of this otherwise bright white Morgan Dollar. The devices are frosty white, and the fields are dripping with luster. This coin is all there. |
|
627 | The Collector's Auction on 10/20/2006 | $1,100.00 |
1880-O PCGS MS-63 DMPL.

Highly reflective surfaces contrast nicely with the cameolike, well-defined devices. Just a hint of soft russet glow flows around parts of the peripheries. |

1880-O SEGS MS-64 Micro O.

1880-O NGC MS-63.
|
Russet and deep blue toning is observed around the peripheries of this pleasing New Orleans issue. A few scattered contact marks are viewed on Liberty's cheek, but none are deep nor distracting. The... |
