1885-O Morgan Dollar MS-63 PCGS
This silver dollar, minted in 1885, represents a classic era of American coinage. Struck at the historic New Orleans facility, the coin carries the distinctive 'O' mint mark positioned on the reverse side just above the face value. Containing 0.7734 troy ounces of silver with a purity of 90 percent, this specimen has been certified in Mint State 63 condition, preserving its original design details for modern observers to appreciate. The obverse features a profile of Liberty adorned with a Phrygian cap, her hair band displaying her name. Encircling her portrait are thirteen stars representing the original colonies, the 1885 year of issue, and the Latin motto 'E Pluribus Unum'. On the reverse, a bald eagle holds both an olive branch and arrows in its talons, symbolizing peace and readiness. This central image is framed by the inscriptions 'United States of America' and 'One Dollar', alongside the national motto 'In God We Trust'.
