<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CoinGal07, post: 324322, member: 8843&quot;]Often mintage quantity has a reverse effect on the value of the coin when you compare grades.&nbsp; A good example of this is the 1889 O vs the 1889 S.&nbsp; The 89-0 had a mintage of 11,875,000.&nbsp; The 89-S only 700,000.&nbsp; However, in a VF the 89-S values around $80 in a VF and the 89-O values around $20.&nbsp; But, in a MS64 the 89-0 values $800 but the 89-S values $550.&nbsp; This is because the New Orleans mint doesn&#039;t have the reputation of striking well struck coins the say the San Francisco does.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I truly believe this a hobby that takes 2 lifetimes to learn. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Even today was the first time it occurred to me that the 1921Morgan was the first &#039;D&#039; mint ever on silver dollars.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
