The single most popular series of coins in perhaps all of the numismatics is the Morgan silver dollar, which was introduced in the late 19th century to provide consistent access to a kind of coin that was conceived as the cornerstone of American money but has seen sporadic circulation and lengthy interruptions in production prior to 1878. Popular among collectors due to its classic visual design, size, and silver contents and its relatively robust availability, it was first minted between 1878 and 1904. JM Bullion now offers the 1887 Morgan Silver Dollar Coin for online purchase.

The Numismatic Guaranty Company (NGC) has been a leading coin grading service since its founding in 1987 and has graded more than 55 million coins according to the standardized Sheldon Scale recognized by coin dealers all over the world. NGC has certified this coin with a Mint State grade of 64, indicating a coin with attractive overall eye appeal, an average strike, luster, scattered contact marks, hairline scratches, and scuffs that may appear in prime focal areas.
The 1887 Morgan Dollar Coin ships in a tamper-proof plastic container, and comes from an NGC-estimated surviving supply of just over 95,000 such coins. The team at JM Bullion tracks and fully insures each shipment against any chance of loss or damage en route.
