1895 Morgan $1 NGC PF68 UC
1895 Morgan Dollar. NGC graded Proof 68 Ultra Cameo. A fully white gem key date. Only 880 Proofs struck. Faithful to every detail from a full blow by the dies, the hair is crystal clear down to the tiniest little strand at the brow and along Liberty's neck; this does not excludes the key curls above the ear, with only two of them appearing as though fused together. Furthermore, in this full blow by the dies, the viewer is presented with a finely detailed eagle, proud and assured. This side of the coin shows full-featured wings outstretched and a feather-endowed chest projecting from the central part of the design. The main design features are nicely frosted. Hence, the "Ultra Cameo" determination. The coin's obvious perfection speaks for itself: grading Proof 68, it is housed in an NGC holder and will from this time forward remind us just how spectacular these early Morgan dollars are in brilliant Proof condition. Let the current market price be your starting guide for bidding. As seems inevitable whenever a great rarity like a Superb Gem Proof 1895 Morgan dollar changes hands, the interest and value only intensifies, year upon year. Pop 4; 1 finer in 69 (PCGS # 7330) .

Of historic interest: With the circulation strikes either figments of the imagination or (if 12,000 pieces were actually made) lost forever in the mass meltings after World War I, the Proof 1895 Silver Dollar has become one of the roadblocks to assembling the historci and popular Morgan Dollar series. It has been observed by many before us that most of the survivors are prejudiced in one form or another by mishandling and/or crude attempts at cleaning. Gems are rare beyond belief, and highly sought after.
Estimated Value $90,000 - 100,000.
