The Certified Morgan Silver Dollar 1884-O MS65 PCGS has earned a high grade and comes preserved in an official PCGS holder. The Old Mint, served as a branch of the US Mint from 1838-1861, then again from 1879-1909. Unfortunately, the bulk of the New Orleans Mint's production was the Morgan silver dollar, and when the Morgan's production ceased, it took the Old Mint down with it shortly after. After being shut down, the New Orleans Mint was used for other things like an assay office, the US Coast guard office, and even a fallout shelter. The Old Mint is now considered an official historical landmark. The mint mark "O" is underneath the eagle, on the reverse, to represent the Old Mint. Collectors enjoy owning a coin that was minted in one of the oldest buildings in the US.
