Judging Condition Accurately Finds True 1886 Morgan Silver Dollar Value

Essential to finding highest accurate coin values is determining condition. By closely examining the surface and judging the amount of wear reflect its 'grade.' Entries in the value chart above are listed under these grade headings. And in the case of your 1886 silver dollar, if struck at a branch mint, many subtle details have a significant role.

Uncirculated: Is your 1886 Morgan silver dollar value at a premium because of 'uncirculated' condition? An uncirculated coin is without any wear to its surfaces. Original silver mint luster still covers all design details. Holding your coin by the edges, and by tilting and slowing rotating, unbroken bands of luster radiate from edge to edge. Any wear disrupts these bands, most evident on Liberty's cheek.

Extremely Fine: Wear has started to diminish small details of the hair just behind Liberty's ear and forehead. Further behind the ear the folds of the cap are now just slightly flattened. On the revere, small amounts of wear are visible on the tops of the wings, and obvious on the neck and breast feathers. Light overall wear defines silver dollars in 'extremely fine' condition.

Fine: Once distinct and well defined features of Liberty are now reduced by moderate wear, lowering the grade to 'fine' condition. Leaves surrounding the cotton blossoms are only outlines lacking inner detail. Many finer strands of hair have worn to the point of combining into larger flattened areas. Your silver dollar gives the impression of wear but not excessive.

Good: An 1886 silver dollar in 'good' condition is well worn with most of the metal forming the high reliefs of design removed. Liberty's cheek and forehead have blended into one connecting with her hair and cap. The rim is almost gone, however the stars and lettering remain separate of the rim. Giving your coin character, some detail remains, large curls of hair behind the neck and a full 'Liberty' in her coronet.
