Notes:
The 1883 Morgan Silver Dollar is readily obtainable in Mint State,
even in Gem condition. The most common Uncirculated grade is MS-64, followed
by MS-63. The finest examples
graded by PCGS are 2 MS-68's (one of which is pictured above), 2 MS-66 Prooflikes, and
7 MS-66 Deep Mirror
Prooflikes.
Proofs of this date are
slightly scarcer than the mintage might indicate, but not enough to create
a premium. The finest examples graded by PCGS are a single PR-68 and
a single PRCA-66 Proof Cameo.
