# 634 - 1879-S Morgan Dollar
Today we will continue a long series showing unslabbed Morgan Dollars.
This series is dedicated to my #ssg-community friend @silverd510, a real expert in this field.
PCGS, the first coin grading and authentication service, started slabbing coins in 1986.
Those coins were bought since the late seventies to the late eighties, and the dealers attributed the grades to them.
I bought them from three big and highly regarded dealers at the time. Unfortunately they do not exist any more. Things change in forty years...
These dealers were very strict when grading, so if I send these coins to be graded and slabbed maybe I will receive higher grades. Who knows...
I will show them in the order they were minted.
This is the MS-65 1879-S Morgan Dollar Semi Proof-Like.
It weights 26.73g with 90% silver purity.
9,110,000 units were minted in San Francisco in 1879.
They were of very high quality. This, paired with the large numbers which survived in Treasury vaults until the 20th century, makes this issue an attractive option for a collector looking for a high quality example of a Morgan dollar.
Just to have an idea of rarity about this coin's grade, from a total of 105,177 1879-S coins in mint state, NGC graded 24,503 as MS-65, with 10,295 graded higher, until today (11/30/2019).
The NGC MS-65 price is around $140.00.
The NGC MS-65 PL price is around $275.00.
The reverse depicts an eagle with wings outstretched. The mint mark always appears on the reverse above the "o" in "Dollar", except those minted in Philadelphia, that have no mint mark.
The obverse depicts a profile portrait representing Liberty.
Thank you for reading. Please comment, upvote, resteem and advise me.

OK, thanks.
I Really Like the Morgan Dollars @ronaldoavelino
I think that the Peace Dollars are more beautiful, but I have only a few Peace Dollars and many Morgan Dollars...

Isn't it beautiful? I might send it to a grading company (PCGS or NGC).
Is there a cost to get it graded?
Yes, depending on the quantity of coins and the type of the coins.
Keep them coming @ronaldoavelino
