1894-O $1

Coin / United States of America / 1894 / New Orleans / Morgan Dollars / $1 (One Dollar)

The scarce 1894-O Morgan dollar is tough in better circulated grades, highly challenging in uncirculated levels, and exceedingly rare in MS65 or above. This pattern of overall availability is fairly well trodden with O-mint dollars due to weaknesses in strike and overall quality. PLs and DMPLs are exceedingly rare in any grade and unknown in Gem levels.
