1883-CC VAM-5B Dollar, MS67+
High Grade GSA Type coin

1883-CC $1 GSA MS67+ NGC. CAC. VAM-5B. More than 750,000 1883-CC silver dollars appeared in the GSA auctions, but most such pieces are abraded from decades of loose storage in canvas bags. Additionally, many high grade pieces were removed from their GSA holders for encapsulation with third party grading services. Thus, there are surprisingly few Superb Gems still in their government-issued holders. The present lustrous and remarkably smooth Carson City dollar has a good strike and a hint of tan toning near TRUST. As of (11/19), NGC has graded only eight GSA examples as MS67+ with none finer. A GSA box and certificate accompany the lot.
Ex: FUN Signature (Heritage, 1/2008), lot 5829, which realized $6,325.
