1888 Morgan Dollar MS-65 NGC
The 1888 Morgan Dollar stands as a classic representative of America's late nineteenth-century silver coinage. Containing 0.77344 troy ounces of silver with a purity of 0.900, this specimen is certified in Mint State 65 (MS-65) condition, showcasing the intricate details of its historic design just as they were struck over a century ago. On the obverse, a left-facing portrait of Liberty is adorned with a Phrygian cap, which features a hair band inscribed with the word "Liberty". This central figure is encircled by the Latin motto "E Pluribus Unum", thirteen stars representing the original colonies, and the 1888 year of issue at the bottom. The reverse displays a powerful bald eagle with its wings spread, grasping both an olive branch of peace and arrows of strength. Surrounding the eagle are the inscriptions "United States of America" and the "One Dollar" denomination, while the motto "In God We Trust" is positioned directly above the eagle's head.
