Guidelines for Collecting:

The 1881-O dollar is common in AU, or “slider Uncirculated” grade, and high-grade circulated coins are very common as well. Finding a high quality 1881-O should not be too difficult. The strike is usually deep, with some exceptions. Luster varies from frosty to attractive, to somewhat grainy and dull.

Availability in Circulated Grades:

Typically found in lightly circulated grades, EF to AU, and finding a nice AU presents only a modest challenge to those so inclined.

Availability in Mint State Grades:

Plentiful in Mint State, Gems included. Look for coins with few contact marks and good luster. MS-64 is an ideal grade that combines quality and affordability.

Availability in Proof:

None produced.
