***Major Highlight*** 1879-o Morgan Dollar Colorfully Toned TOP POP! $1 ms66+ SEGS (fc) - ***Major Highlight*** 1879-o Colorfully Toned TOP POP! Morgan Dollar $1 ms66+ SEGS. In A Guide Book of Morgan Silver Dollars, fifth edition, Dave Bowers does not even mention MS66 examples of the 1879-O. Rather, the silver dollar authority writes: ”MS-64 coins are scarce, and in proportion to the demand for them, MS-65 pieces are rare. ... Bagmarks are a huge problem.” The Premium Gem population is so small that most collectors will never be able to acquire such a coin. No 1879-O Morgans are known finer.This dazzling MS66+ coin is tied at the top of the Condition Census and is truly about as close to MS67 quality as a coin can get without crossing that landmark border. The strike is sharp, and the luster is frosty and brilliant -- unusual characteristics for an O-mint Morgan that make the 1879-O a favorite issue from this mint. The Registry Set collector simply cannot do better than this very coin
