1882-S $1 MS68+ Certification #35081034, PCGS #7140

Owner's Comments

This tied for top pop 1882-S Godzilla of a Morgan Dollar which the colors remind me of those little fish I used to have when I was a kid. Hence the name "Neon Tetra" which actually came to me in a lucky second chance. The first time I saw this coin was at a Legend Rare Coin Auction and was in the very first Northern Lights Sale. A series of toned Morgan Dollar auctions that were put on by Legend in Vegas in conjunction with the PCGS Invitational members only shows. I ended up being an under bidder. Go forward a couple of years and one day during the California Long Beach show that I was unable to attend that year, I get a phone call from a coin dealer friend of mine saying that he just saw an awesome toned 1882-S Morgan Dollar at a dealers table. So I asked if he could send me a picture and sure enough it`s the same Morgan and the rest is history! PCGS again with the sponsor Legend Rare Coins for the month of June 2017 featured this piece in their calendar. Another super honor it has been.....
