1893 Morgan Silver Dollar - NGC AU-53
Offered here is an authentic 1893 Morgan Silver Dollar, struck at the Philadelphia Mint and certified by NGC as AU-53.
The 1893 Morgan Dollar is a scarce and highly desirable issue within the series. With an original mintage of only 378,000 coins, it has one of the lowest business-strike mintages of any Philadelphia Mint Morgan Dollar and is considerably scarcer than most dates in the series.
Graded About Uncirculated 53 by NGC, this example retains strong overall detail with only moderate evidence of circulation. Much of the original design definition remains visible throughout Liberty's portrait on the obverse and the eagle, wreath, and lettering on the reverse.
