1879 Morgan Dollar MS-65 NGC
This 1879 silver dollar represents a classic era of United States coinage, struck at the Philadelphia Mint during the early years of the beloved Morgan Dollar series. Containing 0.7734 troy ounces of 90 percent pure silver, this specific coin was part of an original mintage of 14,806,000 pieces. Because it was minted in Philadelphia, it bears no mint mark. What makes this particular specimen remarkable is its exceptional state of preservation. It has been officially graded as Mint State 65 (MS-65), indicating a high level of original luster and minimal marks from its time in storage. The obverse displays the date of 1879, anchoring this piece of currency in the late nineteenth century.
