This scarce variety features the flat-breasted eagle from the 1878 Morgan dollars. It is, however, obtainable in all circulated grades and available with some frequency in the MS65 range, though above that becomes significantly scarcer and extremely rare in MS67 or better. PLs are extraordinarily rare in any grade and DMPLs are essentially non-existent.

Obverse Description

Portrait of Liberty centered. On the left are found 7 stars with the words E*PLURIBUS*UNUM followed by 6 stars on the right. The date is positioned at the bottom.

Reverse Description

The heraldic eagle is centered holding a bunch of arrows and branch surrounded by and olive leaves. The words UNITED STATES OF AMERICA * ONE DOLLAR frame the periphery. Mint mark, if any, appears above the letters DO of DOLLAR.
