1884-O Morgan Silver Dollar NGC MS64+

Why purchase this New Orleans struck 1884 Morgan Silver Dollar?

The Morgan Dollar was created by U.S. Mint assistant engraver George T. Morgan as a response to the discovery of the Comstock Lode in 1859. In 1878, with the passage of the Bland-Allison Act, the U.S. Government was required to purchase between two and four million ounces of silver every month, exclusively for the production of silver dollars. The Morgan Dollar was minted from 1878 until 1921, though not consecutively. This Morgan Dollar was struck at the New Orleans Mint from 0.7734 Troy oz. of .900 fine silver, with a final reported mintage of 9,730,000.
