The 1895-O Morgan Dollar is one of the major keys of the series, and this certified NGC XF-45 example offers strong detail, original surfaces, and excellent overall eye appeal. With extremely low survivorship and a reputation as one of the toughest business-strike Morgans, collector demand for this date is always intense. This coin shows natural, even wear and has clearly been preserved with care—making it an exceptional opportunity to acquire a truly scarce New Orleans rarity.

Struck at the historic New Orleans Mint during a period of heavy commercial use, the 1895-O mintage was almost entirely released directly into circulation. Many coins were subsequently melted under the Pittman Act, leaving very few survivors in collectible grades. Today, the 1895-O stands as one of the most difficult late-19th-century silver dollars to secure, representing a fascinating chapter in American monetary history.

The obverse displays Liberty with well-retained detail, bold lettering, and attractive silver-gray coloration. Wear is smooth and even across the portrait, with good definition in Liberty’s hair and the surrounding stars. The reverse features better-than-typical eagle feather detail for the issue, clear legends, and natural, problem-free toning—traits that make this example stand out within its grade.

NGC’s XF-45 certification confirms the coin’s originality and sound surfaces. The high-end eye appeal, sharp remaining detail, and lack of major marks combine to create a compelling example of this famously difficult key date. For collectors working on a full Morgan Dollar set, this is one of the most important coins and among the most challenging to find in attractive condition.

An excellent choice for advanced collectors seeking a centerpiece rarity with strong long-term desirability.
