The 1889 Morgan Dollar had a high mintage of 21,726,000 regular strike coins and only 811 proof coins. The coins have terrible strikes and luster and finding a fairly decent coin can be a challenge. The 1889 Morgan Silver Proof Dollar is a little bit better in quality than the regular strike, but not much. The price of these coins in high grades is worth as MS-60 coins go for around the $30 range, but the MS-68 and MS-69 1889 Morgans can be valued at $25,000+. The 1889 Proof Morgan ranges in price from around $1,000 to $30,000+ depending on how good the quality is. The special VAMs are VAM 19-A, VAM 19-B, and VAM-22, all which deal with a bar wing die break.
