General Notes: The 1903-S Micro S Morgan dollar is a popular variety that experts believe may have been struck by a die punched with an S mintmark intended for the Barber quarter. A few thousand specimens are known to exist, though essentially all are circulated specimens. Perhaps a tiny few exist in uncirculated condition. There are no known PLs or DMPLs. This important VAM variety is designated as one of the MEGARED100 in the Mega Red 10th edition. PCGS #: 133967 NGC ID: 256T
