Morgan Silver Dollar Extra Fine Condition 1898-O

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. Many Morgan collectors enjoy having the Morgans to use as a reminder of these important mining days. In fact, these days are what we refer to now as the "Wild West" and what better way to enjoy that history than collecting the actual currency of the time? 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. Your 1898-O Morgan is in extra fine condition and carries the "O" mint-mark, signifying it was minted at the New Orleans mint.
