The 1883-S is a better date, and while plenty of specimens exist in the circulated grades it becomes difficult to locate in the better grades -- particularly above MS63. Pieces grading MS64 are genuinely scarce and MS65s are extremely rare, with the few pieces grading higher commanding incredible premiums from collectors vying to build the best sets. PLs of any grade are legitimately rare and the tiny handful of DMPLs, none known in MS65 or better, command astronomical prices.

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.
