PCGS MS-63 (illustrated above)
Notes:
The finest Uncirculated examples graded by PCGS are 3 MS-65's, a
single MS-63 Prooflike, and a single MS-61 Deep Mirror Prooflike.
The finest "Double Die" example graded by PCGS is a
single AU-58.
You can expect to pay a premium for Proof 1901 Morgan Silver
Dollars because of competition from collectors who find great
difficulty in locating true Mint State examples. As a Proof,
this date is no rarer than any other, but locating a Gem can be
quite a challenge, both actually and economically. The finest
Proofs graded by PCGS are 4 PR-67s and 2 PR-66 Cameos.
