Attractive Rim Toning on Both Sides of this Beauty!
The 1887 $1 Morgan Silver Dollar, graded PCGS MS-66+ with CAC approval, is a standout example of one of the most iconic coin series in American numismatics. Designed by George T. Morgan, this silver dollar features Lady Liberty’s profile on the obverse and a heraldic eagle on the reverse, struck in 90% silver. The 1887 issue, minted in Philadelphia, had a high mintage of over 20 million, making it relatively common in lower grades but quite desirable in MS-66+ condition.
Collectors value such coins for their beauty and investment potential, as high-grade Morgans remain a cornerstone of American coin collecting, blending history and artistry. PCGS has graded 254 in MS66+ with 379 finer. In CAC, there are 603 in both MS66 and MS66+ with 123 finer.
Achieving an MS-66+ grade from PCGS indicates this coin is a gem, with minimal marks, and vibrant luster. The “+” designation signifies it’s at the high end of the grade, while CAC verification confirms superior quality for the grade. Coins of this caliber often display stunning eye appeal, with clean surfaces and strong strikes, elevating their desirability.
