Lot Title: 1880-S NGC MS-68 Star
Lot Number: 485
Description: Crackle And Pop Collection. 296 graded MS-68, 27 graded MS-68 "star", 12 higher at NGC. Ex-M L Moser Collection. The era of San Francisco dollars from 1879-S through 1882-S ranks as perhaps the most consistent period of high-quality production for the entire series. Here is an example that ranks near the pinnacle of such silver dollar representatives as it provides astounding, flashy white brilliance beneath simmering luster that threatens to boil right over the surface. The dies were so fresh and repolished that at some viewing angles, the obverse seems prooflike, although technically, that is not the case; it's just that 1880-S magic in play. Strike quality barely misses perfection, but this is still an astonishing type example that fits into any superb collection.
