Description

1880-CC Morgan Dollar, MS67
Superb Carson City Date Candidate

1880-CC $1 MS67 PCGS. CAC. Ex: JCS Collection. The 1880-CC was made plentiful in the 1970s with the dispersal of the GSA silver dollar holdings. More than 131,000 coins were distributed, or roughly 22% of the total mintage from a century prior. Of these, more than 114,000 coins qualified for what the GSA graders considered Uncirculated, meaning the coins were neither toned nor obtrusively scratched. About 16,000 toned and scratched coins were also distributed.

Nonetheless, the availability of this issue declines significantly at the Superb Gem grade level. The piece offered here is conditionally scarce. Just two Prooflike coins grade as fine at PCGS, and only a single MS68 non-Prooflike piece is reported finer. This CAC-recognized piece is vibrantly lustrous and brilliant, showing frosty, untouched fields. A touch of strike weakness is seen on the eagle's legs and the hair above Liberty's ear, but original mint frost still remains on these areas, indicating complete originality. Population: 35 in 67 (1 in 67+), 1 finer. CAC: 7 in 67, 0 finer (7/19).
