The Birth of America's beautiful Morgan Dollar – Minted from 1878-1904, and once again in 1921, the Morgan silver dollar is one of America's most popular collectible coins. To fully understand the history of these 90% silver beauties, we first have to go back to the era of our nation's great gold and silver rushes – particularly 1859.

With a minimum 1895 Morgan silver dollar value in the hundreds of dollars, your coin is very scarce and very desirable to collectors.
Relatively few 1895 dated silver dollars exist today. Original mintages at the time were only a fraction of most other dates. Because of its rarity a coin of this importance requires a close inspection to realize its full value.
Of particular interest is the mint that struck the coin. Silver dollar collections are often formed around the different mints striking coins and in 1895 only two mints were involved. A distinctive 'mintmark' was used by each and placed on the reverse. View the detailed description and close-up image of the mintmark location; see the section after the value chart.
Next to consider is condition. Because of quickly rising value in above average condition, specifically 'uncirculated' condition, your 1895 silver dollar needs a careful assessment.
Pictured to the right is an example with just a trace of wear to its surface, noticeable because the shimmer of mint luster is missing. It remains a desirable coin but, as a result of the slight wear it is no longer considered as 'uncirculated.' Highlighted further down the page is the auction appearance of a true uncirculated 1895-O dollar with a value of over $30,000.
Your coin is scarce and subtle differences determined its worth. 1895 Morgan silver dollars are valued both by their condition and the particular mint striking the coin.
Look to the reverse of your old silver dollar to find important mintmarks. These small letters identify the mint striking the coin. Towards the lower rim, between the 'Dollar' and the ribbon holding the wreath is where either the San Francisco mint placed an 'S' or the New Orleans mint an 'O.'

Is your silver dollar mint state? Condition is one of the key elements in an accurate determination of coin values. Within the hobby, seeking mint state or 'uncirculated' condition silver dollars is high on the list of collectors, here also is where you find top values. Holding your coin next to the images and referring to the descriptions, establishes its 'grade' and accurate value.
Uncirculated: A very high 1895 Morgan silver dollar value is reserved for 'Uncirculated' examples or also known as Mint State. Coins in this 'brand new' condition are the highlights of collections. The minting process imparts a delicate frosty luster to the surface of coins. When titled, light on an uncirculated coin reflects in bright bands uninterrupted from rim to rim. Confirm your coin is uncirculated by examining Liberty's cheek and chin area, any wear across these high points shows as a break in luster.
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 an 1895 Morgan silver dollar 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: Lack of design defines this old silver dollar as 'Good' condition. Liberty is mostly an outline, once a cap, hair curls and head band are now obscured. Lettering often connects to the rim in places but must remain readable. Lack of any hair line above the forehead places this coin solidly in this lower grade. Still collectable, despite heavy wear, your 1895 Morgan silver dollar value reflects its rarity.
