The 1888-O Morgan dollar is a popular New Orleans Mint coin, one that is quite common in circulated grades and widely available in MS grades through MS65. It becomes rare in MS66 or higher, and such is the case for PLs and DMPLs, which are extremely challenging in the Gem levels.
Obverse Description
Portrait of Liberty centered. On the left are found 7 stars with the words E*PLURIBUS*UNUM followed by 6 stars on the right. The date is positioned at the bottom.
Reverse Description
The heraldic eagle is centered holding a bunch of arrows and branch surrounded by and olive leaves. The words UNITED STATES OF AMERICA * ONE DOLLAR frame the periphery. Mint mark, if any, appears above the letters DO of DOLLAR.
