1879-S and 1881-S, both NGC MS-65.
|
|
Steve Deckling Collection. A pairing of the most common gems in the series look spectacular in NGC holders at the MS-65 level. 1879-S displays shimmering satin surfaces with trivial almond-peach... |

1879-S NGC MS-66+.
|
|
Checkered Collection. Sensational snow-white quality shimmers with untoned beauty and a hint of cameo frost on the portrait. Tiny abrasions on the bridge of Liberty's nose may be what decided the... |

|
1879-S ANACS MS-65 PL, and an 1884 ANACS MS-63 CAMEO PL.
|
|
Bradford Pear Collection. The 1884 does in fact show stronger prooflike contrast than its 1879-S companion, and evidently "The New ANACS" uses a "cameo" descriptor on such high-contrast prooflike... |

| 854 | The Collectors' Auction 2013 on 10/18/2013 | $600.00 |
|
1879-S NGC MS-66, 1882-S MS-66+ CAC.
|
|
Certainly neither date is rare even at MS-66, though the 1882-S picks up a "plus" and a sticker that emphasize exceptionally clean surfaces. Both are blazing white coins, with 1879-S showing some... |

|
1879-S NGC MS-67, plus a second 1879-S NGC MS-64 Star.
|
|
7070 Collection. A few small dark spots drizzle here and there upon the MS-67 coin, and without them, this could become MS-68, as the quality is simply entirely "there", from an almost impossible... |
|
| 691 | The Collectors' Auction 2012 on 10/05/2012 | $260.00 |
|
Four 1879-S PCGS MS-64.
|
|
Perhaps PCGS should consider a "PL obverse" designation, as each of these would easily qualify, and one of the coins also seems to be nearly prooflike on the reverse. All are blistering white and... |
|
| 692 | The Collectors' Auction 2012 on 10/05/2012 | $450.00 |
|
Two 1879-S NGC MS-66.

|
1879-S, 1880-S, and 1898-O, all PCGS MS-66.
|
|
Though common dates, these should provide nice upgrades for many collectors focused on PCGS coins. 1879-S and 1880-S are both blast-white and incredibly well struck as usual, the latter coin showing... |
|
| 694 | The Collectors' Auction 2012 on 10/05/2012 | $525.00 |
|
1879-S NGC MS-66 star, and an 1881-S NGC MS-66.
|
|
NGC's "star" often denotes prooflike properties, and indeed the screaming white 1879-S dollar flashes a fully prooflike obverse. 1881-S shows off pure snow-white satiny mint frost and stellar... |

| 695 | The Collectors' Auction 2012 on 10/05/2012 | $310.00 |
|
1879-S NGC MS-66+ CAC.
|
|
The reverse easily grades MS-67, while the obverse retains amazingly clean fields, and both sides offer a hint of prooflike character. Perhaps a couple of tiny luster grazes on the cheek and neck... |

| 696 | The Collectors' Auction 2012 on 10/05/2012 | $525.00 |
|
1879-S NGC MS-67.

Each is suitably graded in this trio, with brilliant white luster dominating the presentation. 1879-S has limited prooflike tendency despite the designation, while 1881-S is the usual lustrous... |

1879-S, 1884-O/O (VAM-10, Hot 50), and an 1884-O. All PCGS MS-64 and...

A gorgeous band of beaming rainbow tones decorates the right side of 1879-S, and slivers across the upper right reverse as well. The phrase "colorfully toned" takes on a whole new level with regard... |

1879-S NGC MS-66 PL.

Three 1879-S NGC MS-65.

A couple of these have semi-prooflike obverse fields, but these are more or less typically brilliant examples of this uber-common Morgan dollar issue. Hmph, and you thought we wouldn't notice. Three... |

1879-S NGC MS-67+.
|
|
The wire brushed appearance of the reverse derives from a freshly polished die, and both sides offer considerable prooflike quality, probably deserving of "star" consideration. Instead, NGC used a... |

|
Twenty 1879-S Morgan dollars, Uncirculated.

1879-S and 1880-S.

The 1879-S is graded MS-66 in an older ANACS holder, and the 1880-S is graded MS-65 in a PCGS green label holder. Aside from "grade", the 1879-S is far and away the jewel of this lot, featuring... |

1879-S and 1881-S NGC.

Disparate NGC grades fail to convey just how closely these two gorgeous, glittering Morgan dollars resemble each other. The 1879-S is graded MS-64 PL and absolutely seems undergraded until a loupe is... |

Two 1879-S and four 1880-S. NGC MS-63*.

1879-S NGC MS-66.

1879-S NGC MS-66*.

While it is widely known that NGC will apply the coveted "star" designation to Morgan dollars featuring a one-sided cameo appearance, this seems to be a case where one side simply grades much higher... |

Redfield hoard dollars comprise this lot. Included are: 1879-S (MS-66), 1883-O (MS-63), and 1898 (MS-64). Though all three are common dates, what elevates this lot considerably is the quality of the... |

1879-S Morgan dollars, NGC MS-64
