Lot 124: US 1880-S Morgan Dollar 5-10% Off-Center Error. Appearance of 10% off-center strike to the eye, yet would likely certify as a 5% to 7% off-center at PCGS. Original toned iridescent pale gold and gunmetal superb Gem Unc, technically pristine and virtually mark free, no doubt among if not the finest known. Rare error and grade. Set aside by a Federal Reserve employee a generation or more ago. A rare opportunity to buy the most exquisite of toned Morgan Dollar error coins! Nice trophy coin for the Morgan Dollar specialist. Steve adds:
"It came in from an estate of a Federal Reserve staffer of the 1930s-1950s era, purchased "Not only is this a great coin, but the provenance and story of this piece just makes it even better!"
