The 1898-S Morgan dollar is a common coin in circulated grades and up through MS64, with Gems in the MS65 range or higher proving much scarcer and MS67s extremely rare. Amazingly, at least one has been certified as MS68, with premiums for this grade soaring into astronomical levels. PLs and DMPLs are quite scarce, and Gems with either designation are rare.

Obverse Description

Portrait of Liberty centered. On the left are found 7 stars with the words E*PLURIBUS*UNUM followed by 6 stars on the right. The date is positioned at the bottom.

Reverse Description

The heraldic eagle is centered holding a bunch of arrows and branch surrounded by and olive leaves. The words UNITED STATES OF AMERICA * ONE DOLLAR frame the periphery. Mint mark, if any, appears above the letters DO of DOLLAR.
