Product Description
1885 Morgan Silver Dollar XF -- Minted 140 years ago, this big silver dollar circulated when Mark Twain's Adventures of Huckleberry Finn was first published. At the time, just one Morgan could pay for a boat trip from New York to Boston. Struck during the first full decade of the Morgan series, a minimal number of these 1885 Philadelphia dollars survive today – just 6% of the original 17.8 million mintage is estimated to remain in mint-state quality. That puts pressure on circulated grades like this Extra Fine quality.
1925 Peace Silver Dollar Extra Fine -- In 1925, the Philadelphia Mint produced 10.2 million business strikes – which was a mere fraction of the staggering 52 million output in 1922! Despite being issued during a time when big 90% silver dollars held significant buying power, these Extra Fine 1925 specimens were lightly circulated and still retain sharp detailing 100 years later. It's estimated that less than 20% of the original output survives today in collectible condition.
