This coin has character, almost too much for a slab.
Well, just Love coins, period.
Nice pickup!

I agree, that is very cool and might just be recent to market

Your coin is very attractive and solid for the grade but I wouldn't bet against it having been dipped once before perhaps 30 years ago.

This is what kills me, I couldn't sell a certified, PCGS MS example for LESS than paid, blows me away, but whatever.

Yeah, I've heard rumors to that effect
I am not used to seeing this steel grey, which I find most appealing (esp on Walkers), on dipped out silver which is what I think 71Jagaurs was getting at. In any event, I was speaking of the comment about the slab.
Best wishes,
Eric

I hear ya there. Just a matter of finding that one right buyer I suppose.

That is a lot of money for that coin, but it looks like a wonderful piece.
BTW, you can sell me any 84-S graded MS by either of the top two services for this price unseen.

You can't buy a nice AU58 84-S at anywhere near even PCGS values.
$1800-2500 will secure you a nice example with breast feather details.
I'm not seeing what the + is for on this example and I hate to be the bearer of bad news but both the obverse and reverse seem to suffer from mild pvc issues.
In fact most of the AU58+ Coins I have seen at auction sold at ms62-63 prices. Luckily this didnt go higher.

The 1884 s is for sure a wild coin... should be common as dirt in MS.... but all went out for folks to use.
Kinda neat to have a non rare coin..... be so rare!

Circs and even up to mid AUs are common. If you notice, 1884-S Dollars in Mint State have completely dried up in the current marketplace. One used to be able to find MS-61/62 certified coins from time to time, but those types of pieces just aren't around presently for the most part.
The OPs coin looks like a great coin! I would love to see it in hand.

This is not what the auction records at HA.com state but I don't know the market to be honest.

AU58+: Slightly detectable rub (with a capital S)
That's a real hair splitter.

I agree, and am wondering if PCGS would give it an acetone bath to remove the light film.
However, it does look nice for the date/cond.
