What is the appeal of this coin?
1. Historical value
The 1887 Morgan dollar was one of the most abundant years minted, but the number of high-grade coins has been decreasing year by year. Coins graded MS64 or higher by NGC are particularly rare and are suitable for long-term investment.
2. Authenticated and guaranteed authentic
NGC is a globally trusted coin grading organization. This coin comes in an NGC sealed slab (plastic case), and its authenticity can be confirmed by the certification number registered in its database. This is a coin that even beginners can purchase with confidence.
3. Silver as an Asset
Morgan dollars are made of 90% pure silver, and in addition to the value of the silver itself, they are also an asset with collectible and historical value. They are also popular as a physical asset to hedge against inflation and prepare for currency instability, and are attracting attention as an alternative asset, especially in Japan.
