|
Twenty 1886-S Morgan dollars, all UNC.

|
Beach and Land Collection. Collector appeal: "B+". Edge patina varies considerably, leading to the conclusion that this is a put-together roll. But seriously, how often does a full roll of 1886-S... |

1886-S PCGS MS-64.
|
|
Bradford Pear Collection. Value quadruples to a still-manageable level for 1886-S at the next grade, but when MS-64 looks this nice, why expend the extra resources for a very slight bump in quality?... |

1886-S (VAM-1A) NGC MS-63.
|
|
Noticeably less common in higher grades, 1886-S remains affordable at the present MS-63. Absolutely deafening luster surrounds high-resolution devices, with the entire package dressed up in mild... |

1886-S (VAM-2) PCGS MS-65 CAC.
|
|
1886-S proves to be even more elusive than its premium value in MS-65 would indicate, with most examples relegated to a lower grade for excessive abrasions often seen. Not so this pleasing example,... |

|
1886-S MS-61, and an 1887-S MS-62, both NGC.
|
|
A pair of dollars includes coins that grade in the lower mint-state grades, but both are nice for respective assessments and would cost quite a bit more at even MS-63. the 1886-S (MS-61) shows... |

1886-S PCGS MS-63.
|
|
1886-S often shows abraded surfaces, yet this "choice" example manages to avoid major marks, aside from several small abrasions clustered on the upper cheek. Off-white with excellent luster and an... |

1886-S/S (VAM-2, Top 100) NGC MS-65.
|
|
Spectacular, pure silver-white surfaces show no toning whatsoever on either side, allowing the full GEM quality to shine through. Liberty's cheek remains clean as can be, and the fields are amazingly... |

1886-S (VAM-2 S/S) PCGS MS-62, and an 1887-S PCGS MS-64.
|
|
A pair of better S-mint Morgan dollars, both certified by PCGS. 1886-S/S VAM-2 is a Top-100 attraction, this white example graded MS-62 and quite decent at that level. Liberty's cheek is somewhat... |

1886-S PCGS MS-65 (green label).
|
|
At the MS-65 grade level, 1886-S becomes a significant semi-key in a complete collection, a stance supported by population statistics. PCGS has put 249 into the MS-65 grade, but only 32 higher, and... |

|
1886-S and 1901-S PCGS MS-63.
|
|
While not terribly scarce in circulated grades, 1886-S and especially 1901-S offer a challenge in better uncirculated grades, and both of these meet standards for a PCGS MS-63 grade. Appearance of... |

1886-S PCGS MS-64 (ogh).
|
|
The MS-64 grade assigned by this PCGS green-label holder seems risky and undoubtedly assures this coin will never be cracked out. The obverse is suitably close to gem quality, which is what one hopes... |

1886-S/S VAM-2 (Top-100) PCGS MS-64.
|
|
Seldom is 1886-S uttered in the same breath as more famous issues in the Morgan dollar series for identification as a key, yet it becomes quite an expensive item at the gem level, making MS-64 coins... |

1886-S NGC MS-64.
|
|
Better than average for MS-64, as Liberty's cheek is affected mostly by mere luster grazes, and few contact marks of any significance. A marvelous satiny-white coin that has taken on the merest... |

1886-S MS-63, 1887-S MS-63, and 1900-S MS-63.

A captivating lot of three gleaming, mint-fresh Morgan dollars, all of which certainly grade MS-63 at the very minimum. The 1886-S is gorgeous, with a fascinating array of die-polish lines (as... |

1886-S PCGS MS-65.

|
The 1886-S Morgan dollar is one of those coins that is characterized by an enormous and well-deserved leap in value between MS-64 and MS-65. Fortunately, the present example leaves no doubt as to its... |

1886-S AU-50 and 1890-O MS-63.

|
An invigorating branch mint pairing from this popular series. The 1886 displays a glistening reflectivity and a smattering of minute ticks. The 1890 manifests a delicate cartwheel from its satinlike... |

1886-S NGC MS-64 PL.

Liberty's face, and the Eagle on the reverse, are almost entirely free from marks -- and both have a pleasing frosty appearance. The devices, while not reflective enough to be considered deep, are... |

1886-S MS-63 Environment Damage.
|
|
Nice luster and tons of flash, but around the peripheries of the reverse is a very dark purplish area that appears to be environmental damage. |
