There was a sprinkling of them throughout the other years of production, although most of the minting errors occurred in 1878. Fortunately, for the US Mint, all of the minting mistakes that happened to the Morgan Silver dollars, made those coins especially valuable to the avid collector. One of these mistakes is the "O over S", wherein the coin originally had a "S" mint-mark but was stamped over with an "O" mint-mark. The mint-mark should resemble an "O" with a line going through it horizontally. Similar to the 1878 variations, these mistakes are not looked at as mistakes but rather as unique qualities of the Morgan. Your 1882-O over S Morgan was originally minted in New Orleans and contains the famous mint-mark that is similar to a figure eight. This abnormal mint-mark can be found on the reverse of the coin, underneath the eagle's talons. The condition of the coin is considered good-very good, consisting of wear but a readable date.
