The 1887 Morgan Silver Dollar was struck at the Philadelphia Mint with a mintage of 20,290,000.
This example is housed in an older NGC holder and shows natural rim toning, a common result of long-term storage in vintage holders where peripheral color develops from metal–air interaction.
MS-65 indicates a gem uncirculated coin with strong luster and only minor, well-dispersed contact marks.
