A well struck, stark white specimen which exudes a satiny glow and exhibits full coruscating cartwheel effect. There are no marks that are in any way distracting; a tiny contact ding behind Liberty’s mouth and a couple of small reverse field marks make this example identifiable in the future. A specimen which exemplifies Wayne Miller’s observation that, “some pieces are among the most beautiful of all Morgan dollars.”
