1898-S NGC MS-65. 1898-S NGC MS-65.
Lot Title: 1898-S NGC MS-65.
Description: Stunning brilliance embraces the entire coin in long, curving arms of white mint luster that bend and flash in the light. This is a fabulous gem that shows an almost perfectly mark-free cheek along with pristine fields and exquisite sharpness. The fields display the extensive die-polish nearly always seen for 1898-S, with only trivial scattered contact marks defining the grade. (PCGS# 007256)
Low Estimate: $1,600.00

Lot #AuctionCurrent Bid or Hammer PriceDescription
942The Collectors' Auction - 2014 on 10/17/2014$525.00
1898-S NGC MS-64.
Visual impact is that of a perfectly nice, clean bright white silver dollar with no problems, and that is exactly the reality as well. A single luster graze in the obverse left field seems to be the...
943The Collectors' Auction - 2014 on 10/17/2014$1,750.00
1898-S PCGS MS-65.
Checkered Collection. Honey-gold accents penetrate from rims to fields, endowing the obverse with engaging appeal and a pinpoint sharp presentation. 1898-S is well-known as a somewhat tougher date...
859The Midwest Summer Sale 2014 on 07/18/2014$600.00
1898-S and 1899, both PCGS MS-63.
Smithereen's Collection. 1898-S seems to provide slightly premium quality for MS-63, with cheek and fields surprisingly free from even small contact marks. 1899 on the other hand displays perhaps...
950The Collectors' Auction 2013 on 10/18/2013$650.00
1898-S NGC MS-64.
Undipped and therefore very lustrous, the whole coin displays the ideal level of original patina that many savvy silver dollar collectors pursue. Crumbles of coral-gold toning gather toward the rims...
840The Midwest Summer Sale 2010 on 07/23/2010$475.00
1898-S NGC MS-63 PL (no line).
For a large silver coin bearing prooflike fields, the MS-63 grade seems conservative, since there are no noticeable marks on the obverse. Admittedly, a few small ticks can be found on the reverse,...
634The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/12/2010$1,950.00
1898-S/S VAM-7 PCGS MS-65.
Steam-white and adequately graded at the MS-65 level, the attractive appearance benefits from fine silky-white luster. A couple of spindly die cracks can be seen at peripheral areas of the obverse.
748The Midwest Winter Sale 2008 on 02/08/2008$425.00
1898-S Morgan dollar, PCGS MS-63 PL
Our sale features a pleasing selection of Morgan dollars encapsulated in first generation PCGS "rattler" holders. The present 1898-S is just shade off being completely untoned, and offers moderate...
858The Midwest Winter Sale 2007 on 02/09/2007$1,100.00
1898-S PCGS MS-63 and 1901-S PCGS MS-64.
Both coins are blazing white, problem free, fully struck, very attractive, and dripping with luster. If you were to cover up the grades, you could not tell which one was graded what because they look...
857The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/17/2006$650.00
1898-S PCGS MS-64.
Fully struck, and its satin like surfaces are embellished with delightful mauve tones. Except for a couple contact marks on Liberty's lower jaw, this delightful piece would certainly be classified as...
