If you are a "Wild West" fan than this Morgan silver dollar is for you! Specifically used as currency during the famous gold rush expeditions in California and Alaska, the 1898-O is a solid reminder how of far the precious metals industry has come. These expeditions were dangerous, tiresome, and sometimes not always worth it. It was estimated that only one out of one hundred miners would even find enough gold to make the trek worthwhile. Many Morgan collectors enjoy having the Morgans to use as a reminder of these important mining days. But mining gold wasn't the only precious metal that was being mined in those days. Silver was being turned into silver dollars faster than anything else but since a lot of silver coins were not being put into circulation, they just sat in banks for decades. Your 1898-O Morgan is in brilliant uncirculated condition and has earned the grade of MS63 by NGC.
