<B>1901 $1 MS63 NGC.</B></I> In his efforts to trace the releases of Morgan dollars, David Bowers in his book <I>American Coin Treasures and Hoards</B></I>, sums up the information on 1901 releases saying, "So far as is known, this date was not represented in any Treasury releases of the 1940s, 1950s or the remarkable early 1960s." <I>Numismatic News</B></I> columnist Paul Green, in a January 9, 2007 article, writes: "... we cannot say with certainty the 1901 was not released. We can simply suggest that if released, it was not reported."<BR> The bright lustrous surfaces on the Select example in the current lot display touches of golden-tan color at the margins, framing the untoned centers. Sharp definition characterizes the design elements, save for minor softness on the eagle's breast. A few minute obverse marks define the grade.<BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> George T.
