Certified Morgan Silver Dollar 1898-O MS66 NGC

The Certified Morgan Silver Dollar 1898-O MS66 NGC has earned a very high grade, for a BU Morgan, and comes preserved in an official NGC holder. One aspect of progress we can see today is the the way precious metals in available to us. This is due to all of the hard work miners put in over one hundred years ago. Morgan silver dollars were used as currency during the famous gold rush expeditions in California and Alaska. 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. 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 this only added to bulk of Morgans that weren't even in circulation, since there was too many of them.
