1902 One Dollar MS Values
Details
The 1902 Morgan dollar is not necessarily considered a common date, but it is readily available enough in circulated and low-end uncirculated grades to satisfy collector demand. Examples grading up through MS65 are relatively easy to find in the marketplace, while MS66s are quite scarce and MS67s are rare. PLs are considerably rare and only a tiny handful of DMPLs exist and command incredible premiums on the rare occasion they are available for purchase.
This coin is made of 90% silver; 10% copper and has a current melt value of $53.64
Obverse: 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: 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.
