Description
1889-CC Dollar, MS61
Exceptional Surfaces and Luster
1889-CC $1 MS61 PCGS. This Carson City key date boasts a low
350,000-coin mintage, comparable in absolute terms to the 1893-P
(378,000 pieces) and 1893-O (300,000 examples) Morgan dollar
issues. However, its rarity is the result of mass melting to the
extent of an estimated 250,000 to 325,000 coins. This sets the
1889-CC apart from virtually all other dates in the series,
especially in better grades. In Mint State, only a select group of
dates challenge this issue in terms of scarcity, the 1893-S
included, ensuring it as a perennial favorite among Morgan dollar
enthusiasts. This is a remarkably attractive example that appears
much finer than the stated grade. The surfaces are unusually clean
for any CC dollar, especially so for an 1889-CC.Ex: Beverly Hills Signature (Heritage, 11/2014), lot 3844. (Registry values: P9, N4719)
