Russell tells us that this coin is “Very flashy and superb!”
This 1891-S $1 Morgan Silver Dollar, graded CAC MS-65, is a gem-quality coin from the San Francisco Mint. Designed by George T. Morgan, it features Liberty’s profile on the obverse and a heraldic eagle on the reverse. It exhibits brilliant luster, sharp details, and minimal marks.
The “S” mintmark ties this coin to the storied San Francisco Mint, known for producing well-struck Morgans. This MS-65 graded coin offers exceptional eye appeal and a sharp strike, appealing to collectors seeking gem state examples. CAC Grading has graded 9 as MS65 with only 2 finer.
David Bowers reports that a significant amount of 1891-S dollars were stored at the San Francisco Mint after production, and remained there for years. Occasionally, 1,000-coin bags were released to the public and dealers. He writes that there were “not many, but enough to keep the market price in the "common date" category.” The years 1941-2 saw a major payout, and from then through the next 10 years, 1891-S dollars were plentiful, especially in West Coast bank vaults and in the stocks of dealers there.
