Sharply Struck 1889-CC MS62 Dollar

1889-CC $1 MS62 PCGS. 1889-CC dollars (350,000 mintage), in comparison to the demand for them, are rare in all grades. Examination of PCGS/NGC population figures indicates that this issue is extremely difficult to acquire in the better Mint State grades. Both services combined, for example, have certified a mere eight pieces in MS65 and better.
This MS62 coin displays a relatively sharp strike, including strong detail in the hair over Liberty's ear and on the eagle's breast feathers. Both sides are essentially untoned and exhibit nearly full luster. A few unobtrusive scuffs are all that stand in the way of a higher grade. This is a great coin for a high grade Morgan dollar collection.(Registry values: P9, N4719)
