General Notes: The 1880-O is a common coin in all grades through the MS64 range and generally feature decent strike. In MS65 and higher the coin is rare, with PLs and DMPLs relatively scarcer than typical MS examples, as is to be expected; in the Gem levels, PLs and DMPLs are rare and command princely premiums thanks to stiff competition among Morgan enthusiasts and particularly registry set collectors.
