1887 Morgan Silver Dollar Philadelphia Mint Lustrous Coin Graded by NGC MS 63
Description: Silver 1887 mint state uncirculated Morgan Dollar from the Philadelphia Mint. The coin is graded by the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC) as being Mint State 63 and is encapsulated in a slab. The coin itself is better than the photos suggest and retains quite a bit of its original mint luster. The coin shows all the details with no wear commensurate with its uncirculated mint state. On the obverse you can see the hair lines in liberty's head, the word LIBERTY is all there in her crown, the cap and the flowers in it, and all the facial details. The reverse shows the eagle's feathers on the neck, wings, chest, legs, and tail with no losses. The coin is beautiful, shiny and has great eye appeal. These coins were designed by George T. Morgan and hence their name "Morgan Dollar". Please carefully review the photos as they are part and parcel of our description.
