Description

Desirable Choice AU 1873-CC Trade Dollar

1873-CC T$1 AU55 NGC. This low mintage issue of 124,500 pieces is a key date in the Trade dollar series. This Carson City production was consigned almost entirely to China; just as this type was intended to do from the outset. Some were released to local depositors, however, and another small number were eventually repatriated from Asia back to American coin collectors. This example displays pleasing, even tan coloration across both sides. Boldly struck and lightly worn on the highpoints, this desirable Choice AU representative is free of any distracting surface marks. (Registry values: N1793)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 252X, PCGS# 7032, Greysheet# 7359)
