Morgan Dollar Proof-Like (DMPL) Coins

Morgan dollar proof like coins may look like a proof, but are not a Morgan dollar proof. A proof is struck twice with a higher than normal die pressure where a proof-like coin is only struck once with normal die pressure. A few characteristics in appearance would be a proof-like coin can have small blemishes, scratches nicks on the coin since they aren’t hand held they are dumped into the hopper with the other coins and put in a canvas bag with one-thousand other coins. A proof coin is hand held through out the process.

One place to take special notice would be the rim. On the rim of a proof you will see the proof rim is square with zero scratches and dents. When looking at a proof-like Morgan the rim is more rounded with lots of small dents.

There are four degrees of descriptive rankings for prooflike coins, which are in order: Satin-like, Semi-prooflike, Prooflike, and Deep Mirror Prooflike. Deep Mirror Prooflike is the highest quality prooflike degree of coin.
