Now collectors have the chance to own this numismatic treasure in certified condition from the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation.

Coin Highlights:
A VAM is a die variety of Morgan and Peace dollar coins that are listed in The Comprehensive Catalog and Encyclopedia of Morgan and Peace Dollars. This book was written by Leroy C. Van Allen and A. George Mallis, hence the term VAM. This particular coin is also included in the top 100 VAM list from 1996 by Dr. Michael Fey and Jeff Oxman.
Each 1887 Morgan Silver Dollar Coin has been struck by the United States Mint and will arrive to you in certified condition. These coins were sent to the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation for inspection, where they received an impressive grade of Mint State 65. Upon delivery, you will find your coin protected inside a plastic slab that also includes the coin’s grade and VAM details. If you’re a fan of historic American numismatic coins, then this piece is a must-have for your collection.
On the obverse face of 1887 Morgan Silver Dollar Coins, there is a portrait of Lady Liberty. Shown in left-profile relief, Liberty is depicted here with a Phrygian cap and crown of cotton and wheat. In preparation for the design, engraver George T. Morgan had a teacher named Anna Willess Williams serve as the model for Liberty’s face. In addition to this portrait, you also see inscriptions on the obverse reading E Pluribus Unum, 1887.
The reverse side of 1887 Morgan Silver Dollar Coins features a front-facing heraldic eagle motif. This bald eagle design was also created by George T. Morgan, who included the iconic arrows and olive branch in the bird’s talons. Reverse inscriptions read United States of America, In God We Trust, One Dollar.
