1878 MS65PL Morgan Dollar

Here is a rare 1878 dollar with 7 tail feathers from the first year of the series in a MS65 Prooflike holder encapsulated by ICG.

This dollar is listed in the NGC Price Guide for $1750. This dollar as a bit of toning around the rim on the obverse along with minor toning on the reverse.  The strike, as you can see from the photos is superb and it's got the great Morgan cartwheel luster (as do almost all of my dollars) and, to me, excellent eye appeal.  I've listed it at $1750 and you can compare it with photos in NGC's price guide with comparable grades.  (ngccoin.com)

1896 MS67 Morgan Dollar

This 1896 Morgan Dollar has been graded MS67 and encapsulated into an ICG holder.  It is almost fully toned and, of course, toning is in the eye of the beholder.  You can see the cartwheels in the photos and the strike is superb.

According to the NGC price guide (ngccoin.com) this coin "retails" for $2100 and wholesales (auction prices) for prices you can see on their site and compare their photos to these.  (I didn't find any toned examples)  That should help you decide if you're interested in this dollar.  One of the first things I learned when looking for Morgan dollars was to "buy the coin and not the holder."  I realize many do the opposite.  But, if you like this dollar and it fits into your collection I personally oonsider it a true superb gem.  My price:  $1150.00.

1904 MS65+ Morgan Dollar

This is an especially rare 1904 Morgan from the Philadelphia Mint graded by ICG into a MS65+ holder as you can see from the pictures.  This is one of the more rare dollars in my collection and is one for a discriminating buyer.

I'm not sure I've seen another Morgan of this date with a gem grade in all the years I've been collecting them.  I certainly haven't had one in my hand other than this one.  According to NGC's Priced Guide (ngccoin.com) the coin is worth $4000 in this grade and $1900 in MS65.  As I'm writing this there's a PCGS coin with the same grade for sale on Ebay for $5300 and I wouldn't trade coins with them.  Check it out and also NGC.  My price: $2750  (As I've said on the intro page reasonable offers always considered.

1884 Ms65DMPL Morgan Dollar

This listing is for an ultra rare 1884 DMPL Morgan encapsulated into a MS65 holder.  DMPL's of this date are hard to find, especially in Gem.

This beautiful, rare, Morgan is listed in this grade by NGC's Price Guide at $3360 and they don't show up at the major auctions very often. (ngccoin.com) According to NGC's site there has only been one dollar in this date graded higher than MS65 DMPL.  Yes, this coin is not in a NGC holder and if I had any desire to resubmit some of my coins this one might be one of them.  Personally, I don't trust any of the grading services - it's just a one day's opinion.  To me, the better opinion is yours.  I believe these photos should allow you to grade this coin yourself.  I will say this, the mirrored fields are, to me, incredible.  I've had one PCGS DMPL coin (which I paid over $1000 for it) and I almost immediately turned around and sold it on Ebay for a substantial loss.  This coin, in my view, is far superior.  My price: $3000

1886 MS67 Morgan Dollar

I call this a very "uncommon" example of a common date in the Morgan dollar series.  Very few dollars are graded in MS67.  Check out the photos of the coins which have sold at the Heritage auctions of this date and grade. That should help you if you "buy the coin and not the holder."

The only reason I'm offering this dollar for sale is that I have another of this date in MS67+ condition.  To me, this is a stunning example of the Morgan dollar.  The strike is full and the luster is beautiful (if you appreciate these things).  NGC lists the price of this coin in this grade at $1050.  Virtually every similar example I could find was for sale at significantly more on Ebay.  I hope my photos are detailed enough (no alterations) to allow you to compare.  My price: $1000.

1887/6 MS64+PL Morgan Dollar

Very Rare 1887 over 6 Morgan dollar from the Philadelphia Mint. Excellent strike and luster.  Very hard to find.

This beautiful dollar is valued by NGC (ngccoin.com) in this grade at $1850.  The fact it's prooflike just makes it more rare.  If you check out NGC's price guide you'll see they don't come along very often.  I believe this coin is a "Vam 2" but I don't know for sure because I've never "connected" very well with the Vam's.  I've priced this rare dollar at $1150.

1889 MS66+ Morgan Dollar

Here is a nice 1889 Morgan from the Philadelphia Mint encapsulated into a MS66+ holder by ICG.  The coin has a mostly russet tone around the rim of the obverse with a bit more toning on the reverse.

NGC's price guide values this date in this grade at $4000.  I don't know what to think about this dollar and I've priced it at $750 because it just doesn't have the luster and the strike which, to me, would justify the grade.  (I usually believe the graders went too low)  You can check out some good comparables HERE. (go to the priced guide)

1897 MS66 Morgan Dollar

Here's another nice Philadelphia Morgan dollar.  Like some of my other dollars I believe you'll either like the toning or not.  If you like it I hope you'll check it out closely

NGC lists the value of this date in this grade at $950.  As you can see the coin is nearly 100% toned.  My price:  $750.  Compare it with coins selling on Heritage HERE.

1888 MS66+ Morgan Dollar

Nice dollar from the Philadelphia Mint with a superb Gem grade.  Beautiful (kind of) Rose toning on the obverse and bright white on the reverse.

NGC puts a value of $1000 on this coin with this date and grade.  ICG encapsulated it into a MS66+ holder, and with a closer look that's a solid grade.  My price: $750.  Check out comparables HERE.

1881 MS66 Morgan Dollar

Beautiful colorful example of a slightly better date Morgan.  I don't know how to value to color of a dollar, but this coin would likely be labeled "rainbow colors."

NGC values this dollar in this grade at $1775.  I've got it priced at $850.  Compare it to those which have sold at Heritage Auctrion in the same grade by visiting NGC's priceguide at ngccoin.com.  .My price:  $850.

1889 MS66 Morgan Dollar

Uniquely toned (end of roll toning?) 1889 Moran hard to find in this grade and I've never seen one which was toned as this one. 

I've pointed out here I have no idea how to price in "color" on a Morgan dollar.  To me the rainbow collors on this dollar make it unique.  NGC values this date and grade at $875.  My price: $800.  Check out comparables HERE.
