|
1893 and 1893-O, both NGC XF-45.
|
|
Checkered Collection. Brighter surfaces bring out a hint of prooflike sheen for 1893 despite light wear, and some bidders will see AU potential here, though the value doesn't rise that much between... |

|
1893 NGC UNC details/scratches.
|
|
Checkered Collection. Every bit of MS-63 quality seems present given boldly shimmering luster and steam-white surfaces, although Liberty's cheek may be slightly more abraded than usual at that... |

1893 NGC AU-53, and an 1897-O PCGS AU-53.
|
|
Bradford Pear Collection. Essentially identical in appearance from the standpoint of preservation, the 1893 does display a slightly weaker strike than its New Orleans companion. Both of these are... |

|
1893 PCGS AU-53, and a 1901 PCGS AU-50.
|
|
Smithereen's Collection. Marvelous sharpness places the 1893 possibly even closer to UNC than the grade suggests, while a perceptible layer of aluminum-grey patina dominates the eye-appeal and... |

| 925 | The Collectors' Auction 2013 on 10/18/2013 | $725.00 |
|
1893 NGC MS-62.
|
|
Decently struck and free from marks. Tough to locate at a reasonable pricing level, the 1893 moves up in price rather quickly from MS-63 on up. Blast-white luster features into the eye-appeal for... |

1893 NGC MS-63.

Bidders should find no shortage of nicer semi-key dollars in today's sale, with this 1893 highly desirable at the MS-63 level. Surfaces are amazingly clean for the grade, with no distracting signs of... |

|
1893 NGC XF-45.
|
|
The XF-45 grade represents a perfect compromise between significant luster and light wear, and as an added bonus, the reverse displays a very strong and sudden crescent of deep navy-blue toning along... |

|
1893 PCGS MS-63.
|
|
VAM-3 and well struck, the doubling of the top of the "3" in the date shows very well for this early die. Smooth luster percolates nicely beneath smoky grey fields, and the rims display a tantalizing... |

| 903 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2011 on 07/29/2011 | $370.00 |
|
1893 (VAM-3) PCGS AU-55.

Practically all the original luster remains, lessened in places only by very light wear. Only honest circulation makes itself felt on either side, with no unsightly marks to be found anywhere. "3"... |

| 817 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2010 on 07/23/2010 | $750.00 |
|
1893 PCGS MS-63.
|
|
Obviously nicer than average for MS-63, Liberty's cheek is much cleaner and the fields less troubled than expected for that grade, and on top of that, each side is well struck. While the booming... |

1893 PCGS MS-62.

Jekyll and Hyde could hardly be better suggested than by a coin such as this, with a bright silver obverse mated to a reverse that is thoroughly absorbed in deep, dark and ominous mulberry-purple... |

1893 MS-63.
|
|
The middle 1890s certainly saw the lion's share of difficult Morgan dollars, and this 1893 proudly takes its place among the keys. This is a schizophrenic coin that soothes and calms the eye with an... |

|
1893 VAM-3 R.5 PCGS MS-64.
|
|
Elegant cartwheel luster dances merrily through the fields, energizing the appearance of this key Morgan dollar. Besides rarity stemming from a low mintage under 400,000 pieces, VAM-3 is given a... |

1893 AU.
|
|
Cartwheel effect rolls around both sides of this minimally toned AU-50 semi-key Morgan dollar. The reverse rim is affected by three small dings, but they have no impact on the eye appeal, which is... |

1893 "Vam-3" MS-63.

|
Philip J. More Collection (Bowers & Ruddy, April 1978, Lot 493) A grade of MS-65 assigned in 1978 at time of sale probably does not stand up to today's grading standards, as some abrasion on the... |

1893, 1893-CC, 1893-O, 1894-S and 1895-O Morgan dollars

|
1893 NGC MS-63.
|
|
Dramatic mint luster sprints across both sides, and a whiff of tobacco gold toning touches all the obverse rim and much of the reverse rim. No major blemishes are singularly notable, and the strike... |

1893 PCGS MS-65.

Housed in an old, small PCGS “rattler” holder, this key date Morgan dollar exudes soft, original luster and white brilliance. A very thin patina has collected across much of the obverse, yielding a... |

1893 AU-55 and 1894-S AU-53.

1893 PCGS MS-64.

What a beauty, and a coin that is as clean as many coins in MS-65 holders. It is the visual definition of originality, showing a soft russet-cream appearance on the obverse. The luster is full, and... |

1893 MS-60+.

1893 MS-64.
|

A blazing white dollar with dripping luster and a fantastic strike. The fields are pretty clean while the cheek has a few marks. The reverse grades MS-84. I know there is no MS-84 grade, but you... |

Two Morgan Silver Dollars. XF-45.
|
|
An 1893 and 1893-O. Both are solid XF+ coins. The Philadelphia issue has trace luster that remains on the surfaces. The 1893-O has been cleaned, but has since retoned. |

1893 MS-63.

1893 PCGS MS-64.

1893 PCGS MS-64.

|
1893 PCGS MS-64.
|
|
There is nothing negative that I can say about this coin. It is very lustrous, has snow white devices, and has minimal marks. The strike is a bit weak, but that is how they come. |

1893 PCGS AU-50.
|
|
I bet at one point in this coins life it was a real humdinger. Since that time it was lightly circulated. Cartwheel luster can still be observed hiding amongst the devices on both the obverse and... |
