Lot Title: 1880-O SEGS MS-64 Micro O.
Description: This is one of my many favorite varieties of Morgan Dollars. This example is dripping with luster and is fully struck.

This lot may contain an item not certified by ANACS, PCGS, or NGC. While Scotsman Auction Co. is typically conservative in our descriptions of items not certified by one of these companies, we cannot guarantee our grading estimation will match their grade. We highly recommend that collectors seeking items certified by a third-party grading service only bid on items that have already been certified. No lot can be returned because of a variance in judgment with regards to grade.

Low Estimate: $250.00
High Estimate: $340.00
Lot Status: Bidding has been closed for this lot.
Hammered Price: $350.00
Price Realized: $402.50

Lot #AuctionCurrent Bid or Hammer PriceDescription
820The 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...
821The 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...
861The 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,...
862The 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! ...
863The 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...
969The 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...
704The 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...
705The 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,...
706The 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...
707The Collectors' Auction 2012 on 10/05/2012$1,350.00
1880-O NGC MS-64.
Aficionados of the series immediately recognize the value of 1880-O in the MS-64 grade level. The date is easy to find in MS-63 or lower grade, and impossible to locate at MS-65, making MS-64 the...
839The 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...
840The 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...
841The 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...
642The 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...
643The 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...
730The 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...
720The Midwest Summer Sale 2007 on 07/27/2007$210.00
1880-O PCGS MS-62.
A bright, frosty white, and well-defined Morgan Dollar housed in a first generation PCGS holder.
721The Midwest Summer Sale 2007 on 07/27/2007$600.00
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...
722The 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...
626The 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.
627The 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.
733The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/17/2006$360.00
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...
