Product Description
1898-S Morgan Silver Dollar VF – In 1898, San Francisco issued 4.1 million Morgans – the smallest output of any facility that year. Today, experts estimate that as few as 2% of that output may be extant in mint-state condition; the low survival rate coupled with demand means that even low-end BU specimens command a premium, selling for $1,499.
1899-S Morgan Silver Dollar VF – About 1% of the 2.5 million silver dollars output by the San Francisco Mint in 1899 are estimated to exist in Uncirculated grades today. With so few available, garden variety BU specimens sell for a sizeable $1,769. As not all collectors can, or want to spend that kind of cash on one coin, it puts additional pressure on the already limited number of circulated examples available in the marketplace, like the Very Fine quality specimens offered here.
