The 1882-O Morgan dollar is extremely common grades through MS65 but, like most O-mints, becomes tougher above that level. PLs and DMPLs follow a similar pattern of availability, as they are generally easy to locate through the grade of MS63 or MS64 but in the MS65 range become much tougher.
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.
Book Reference
Key to Collecting: The 1882-O pieces seem to have been produced with relatively little care. As a handy rule, New Orleans pieces are more diffcult to find with good strike and luster than are those from the other mints. If a palm were to be given for excellence in this regard, it would go to San Francisco, but Carson City pieces are usually well struck, and many Philadelphia pieces are as well.
Surface Quality: Strike varies from fairly decent to weak, but is usually above average. The luster is often dull and insipid, “greasy,” or grainy. Finding a deeply frosty 1882-O can be a challenge.
Prooflike Coins: Strikings from prooflike dies are seen with some frequency and are most attractive in higher grades.
Mintage and Distribution: Although 1882-O was not a rare date and AU coins (sliders) were abundant on the rare coin market, few if any bags of Mint State coins gained notice until the 1950’s, when a few came on the market, as in 1953 and 1957. However, most remained in storage until the great Treasury release of 1962 and early 1963, after which examples were very common.
VARIETIES:
Many varieties were made from up to 33 die pairs. Most are repunched date or mintmark issues, not dramatic except perhaps for VAM-7, of which The Top 100 Morgan Dollar Varieties takes notice.
