Over 8.6 million silver dollars fell off the dies at the New Orleans mint in 1902 and while a common date in MS64 and MS65 grades or lower, this date becomes somewhat scarce in MS66 and is rare this fine. A sharply struck SUPERB GEM example. Not only are all the details crisply rendered (not the norm for most O-mint Morgans), but the details have a wonderful frosted texture. Lively and brilliant silver surfaces are aglow with a radiant luster. Only the faintest blush of the clearest gold patina. The surfaces are clean and free of serious contact anywhere and the eye appeal is great. PCGS 62, NGC 39, CAC 19. While the most recent sold in December 2021 for $8,100, this coin is ex Shucart Family Collection, sold in September 2019 for $13,800. The current CAC CPG value is listed at $12,000. PCGS has graded just five in MS67+ finer, the most recent example selling for $31,200. We expect HIGH END SUPERB GEM will bring a very strong bid from the Morgan dollar Registry Set collector. Good luck. Cert. Number 37287264 PCGS # 7280
