1890-O MS-65. 1890-O MS-65.
Lot Title: 1890-O MS-65.
Description: A prize for the Morgan dollar collector, it is difficult to imagine a lovelier 1890-O dollar than that being offered here today. Though typically struck above the ear, blazing mint luster beguiles the imagination as this coin is tilted under a good, strong light, and more than redeems the grade we have conservatively assigned. There are no particularly obvious grade-limiting factors, though a handful of mild luster grazes below Liberty's chin must be noted.

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: $500.00
High Estimate: $550.00

1890-O PCGS MS-64PL CAC.
Checkered Collection. Long-time submitters to either grading service know how difficult it is to get a "PL" (or "DMPL") designation to go along with strong color, but PCGS pulled the trigger on this...

629The Collectors' Auction 2009 on 10/16/2009$300.00
1890-O NGC MS-64.
Surprisingly prooflike despite the lack of mirrored fields, the cameo contrast stems from a rather heavily frosted portrait on the obverse. Several tiny dark spots are scattered across each side, and...

1890-O, 1891, 1891-S and 1900-S. MS-64.

991The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/24/2009$1,000.00
1890-O NGC MS-65.
A shimmering visual treat is offered by this off-white Morgan dollar, with the reverse probably grading a full point higher than the MS-65 assigned by NGC. A scattering of minuscule handling marks...
698The Collectors' Auction 2008 on 10/17/2008$390.00
1890-O and 1904-O, PCGS.
Typical New Orleans striking deficiency is apparent on these Morgan dollars, but beyond that, they are coins of excellent quality, both encapsulated in green label holders. The 1890-O, graded MS-64,...
810The Collectors' Auction 2007 on 10/19/2007$475.00
1890-O PCGS MS-64.

1890-O PCGS MS-64.
Hardly a mark is visible anywhere on the creamy white surfaces of this remarkably choice coin. The softness of the strike appears to be the sole reason that a higher grade was not awarded to this...
808The Midwest Summer Sale 2007 on 07/27/2007$425.00
1890-O PCGS MS-64.
Showing the typical weak hair detail, but with tons of luster. The surfaces are so free from marks that they look cleaner than most MS-65 dollars.
879The Midwest Summer Sale 2006 on 07/21/2006$475.00
1890-O NGC MS-64 PL.
A highly reflective specimen with no distracting imperfections. The devices are well struck, and the fields are very clean. There is only a breath of golden toning on the denticles.
