1878 7TF Reverse of 1879 Morgan dollars are extremely rare, regardless of cameo-related grade designation. The 7TF reverse saw only 250 total proofs across all possible reverse varieties, and pieces bearing the Reverse of 1879 are believed to number less than 20. Any known cameos are extremely rare and easily bring massive premiums. DCAMs are virtually unknown.
Obverse Description
Portrait of Liberty centered. On the left are found 7 stars with the words E*PLURIBUS*UNUM followed by 6 stars on the right. The date is positioned at the bottom.
Reverse Description
The heraldic eagle is centered holding a bunch of arrows and branch surrounded by and olive leaves. The words UNITED STATES OF AMERICA * ONE DOLLAR frame the periphery. Mint mark, if any, appears above the letters DO of DOLLAR.
