Description

The 1883-O Morgan Silver Dollar VAM 36A Partial E Reverse is a certified PCGS MS63 example of one of the most collectible die varieties in the entire Morgan Dollar series. Struck at the New Orleans Mint in 1883, this coin carries the VAM 36A attribution, distinguished by its Partial E on the reverse — a die characteristic that results from a misaligned or worn reverse hub, leaving only a fragment of the letter E visible in the word ONE or the surrounding legend. PCGS has designated this variety as part of its exclusive HOT 50 VAM list, a curated roster of the fifty most popular and in-demand Morgan Dollar die varieties among advanced collectors. At MS63, the coin presents fully Mint State surfaces with visible cartwheel luster and the rich natural silver toning typical of original New Orleans Mint coinage. The obverse features George T. Morgan's celebrated Liberty portrait, while the reverse displays the iconic heraldic eagle with arrows and olive branch. The coin is housed in a PCGS hard-plastic holder bearing certification number 133990.63/30870932, providing secure long-term storage and display presentation for the collector.
