An eagle stands with raised head and extended, drooping wings. The eagle grasps an olive branch and three arrows within its claws. Statutory legends include E PLURIBUS UNUM in an unusual serif font. The Morgan dollar obverse is Type Two with a raised M initial and an unevenly divided ear. Both sides have the legend E PLURIBUS UNUM, neither side has IN GOD WE TRUST.<BR>This decisively struck Gem has rich orange and rose-red surfaces. Abrasions are absent, and the grade is only limited by an infrequent carbon fleck. Judd-1565 is extremely rare. PCGS has certified just three pieces in all grades, and NGC has yet to certify any. Encapsulated in an old green label holder. Population: 2 in 65 Red, 0 finer (4/07).<BR><I>Ex: Bowers and Merena, 8/89, lot 4181; Dr. Thomas S.
