1898-O & 1899-O Morgan Silver Dollar Pair Brilliant Uncirculated

Product Description

1898-O New Orleans Morgan Silver Dollar Brilliant Uncirculated. More than six decades ago, this historic New Orleans Mint Morgan dollar was a top rarity in the series — selling for several hundred pre-inflation dollars in mint-state quality! Then the U.S. Treasury opened its vaults and sold off its last remaining bags of Brilliant Uncirculated Morgan silver dollars, among which included the coveted 1898-O issues. Suddenly, this connoisseur's treasure became affordable for collectors. Today mint-state specimens are getting tougher to find. Our Brilliant Uncirculated quality has nice original luster and no sign of wear.

1899-O New Orleans Morgan Silver Dollar Brilliant Uncirculated. This classic silver dollar of the venerable New Orleans Mint is by far the most affordable Brilliant Uncirculated Morgan for this elusive date. You'd pay nearly $700 for the Philadelphia issue and over $1,000 for a San Francisco specimen. With only about 5% of its original output estimated to survive in mint-state quality, this 1899-O Morgan is still much scarcer in our Brilliant Uncirculated condition than many earlier issues in the series.
