$1 1895 Silver Morgan Dollar, PCGS PF64 Cameo CAC "The King of Morgan Dollars" Top 100 #43. Sparkling and bright with strong white frost on all the devices and lettering of this key date issue. The depth of the mirror fields is strong too, as the contrast has earned the coveted Cameo designation. In terms of quality a strong loupe finds little more than wispy hairlines when studied under a light, and no other contact merits more than a passing glance. The mintage of 880 pieces for the entire year, all struck in the Proof format, leaves few of the collectors today, especially given that this is the rarest date in the series. Thus the largest number of collectors still seek these out, with few offered in any given year. Finding an example with this degree of contrast and at the PR-64 level is a treat for the specialist. Fully brilliant white surfaces with no signs of toning or spots, and all of the original eye appeal is intact.

One of the long standing mysteries of numismatics is the reported 12,000 pieces that were supposedly coined for circulation by the Philadelphia Mint in 1895. Research no believes these were dated 1894. Another possibility is none of these--if they were dated 1895--survived because they were later melted when vast numbers of Morgan dollars were melted and converted into newer Morgan dollars or the new Peace dollars starting in 1921. Any known circulated examples of 1895 silver dollars are from worn Proof coins. It would certainly cause quite a sensation in numismatics if a bag of Mint State 1895 Morgans turned up at some future deal or coin show, and while the possibility is remote, the last few decades have certainly seen a lot of incredible numismatic discoveries from the ocean floor and from old collections as well.
