Description

1878-CC $1 GSA MS65 NGC. The first-year Carson City Morgan dollar can be located without difficulty in a GSA holder, but Gems are elusive, and the issue becomes rare any finer. This brilliant and boldly struck representative displays sweeping cartwheel luster. The obverse is unusually smooth, and the reverse shows only minor contact. Accompanied by a GSA box sans certificate.
