Description

# 1879-S Morgan Silver Dollar. An exceptional gem-quality example of this popular San Francisco Mint Morgan dollar, showcasing remarkable preservation and eye appeal. The 1879-S is a notable early date in the Morgan dollar series, struck during the initial years of this iconic silver coin design by George T. Morgan. This NGC MS-67 specimen represents the pinnacle of preservation for this issue, with exceptional sharp strike quality and pristine surfaces. Brilliant frosty luster radiates across the coin, highlighting intricate design details with remarkable clarity. Minimal contact marks and exceptional eye appeal make this an outstanding example for the advanced Morgan dollar collector or sophisticated type set enthusiast. The San Francisco mint issue from 1879 is particularly desirable, with relatively limited mintage and excellent overall strike characteristics. Numismatic grade of MS-67 places this coin in the top echelon of surviving examples, representing less than 1% of known specimens for this date and mint mark. A true highlight for the discerning collector seeking a premium quality Morgan dollar with exceptional eye appeal and technical merit.
