This exceptionally scarce Morgan dollar is challenging in all grades, and it boasts the lowest mintage of all circulation strikes in the series. It is certainly rare in all uncirculated levels -- the rarest of all regular-issue Morgan dollars in MS. Amazingly, at least one exists in MS67, with only small handfuls available in each of the lower MS grade points.
A few PLs exist, but DMPLs are virtually unheard of. As with any rare coin, one should be extremely wary when buying a raw example as many counterfeits exist -- certainly many more than the real 1893-S Morgan dollar. Buy certified when possible, especially if unsure of the diagnostics used for determining an authentic 1893-S dollar.
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.
