- Glorious Gem Proof 1900 Morgan Dollar
1900 Morgan Silver Dollar. Proof-66 (NGC). CAC. OH.
With richly original toning in dominant charcoal-steel and antique copper-rose, this coin is most similar in appearance to the Barber half dollar in this 1900 Proof set. It also reveals vivid undertones when observed with the aid of direct lighting, in this case mostly champagne-pink and cobalt blue. Sharply to fully struck throughout with expertly preserved, visually appealing surfaces.
At 912 coins struck, the 1900 boasts the second highest mintage in the Proof Morgan dollar series after the 1894 (972 pieces produced). The Mint was likely anticipating heightened Proof sales to contemporary collectors in connection with the turn of the century. While survivors of the Proof 1900 are readily obtainable in an absolute sense by the standards of the type, most are confined to lower grades through Proof-64. At the present level this issue is a notable rarity, and few Gems are as undeniably original in preservation as this.
Provenance: Offered as part of a nearly complete and CAC-approved 1900 Proof Set including Gold Coinage.
NGC Census: 20; 13 finer in this category (Proof-68 finest).
CAC Population: 3; 1.
PCGS# 7335. NGC ID: 27ZY.
