Description

# 1881-S Morgan Dollar NGC MS-62 PL. An exceptional Prooflike Morgan Silver Dollar from the historic San Francisco Mint, this 1881-S represents a remarkable specimen of late 19th-century American coinage. Graded *Mint State-62 Prooflike* by NGC, the coin exhibits stunning mirror-like surfaces that capture the numismatic artistry of the era. The *Prooflike* designation indicates exceptional reflective fields, with deep, pristine mirrors that showcase remarkable visual contrast between the devices and background. Only a small percentage of Morgan Dollars from this era achieve such exceptional surface quality, making this piece a true collector's prize. NGC population reports suggest approximately 450 coins exist at this grade level, with only 1,250 examples graded higher. Struck at the San Francisco Mint, this Morgan Dollar displays crisp architectural details and exceptional luster preservation. The coin's technical grade of MS-62 indicates minimal marks and exceptional eye appeal, representing an outstanding example for both advanced collectors and numismatic investors. The NGC certification #6817344005 guarantees the coin's authenticity and quality. Provenance and Market Considerations: - *Price Guide Value*: $850. - *Starting Auction Bid*: $7,800. - Rare Prooflike Designation. - Exceptional Strike Quality. - Highly Collectible Condition
