PCGS 1878-CC MS 66. Not too long ago the '78-CC was considered "just another common date CC dollar." However, with the advent of third party grading and published population data, this issue is now recognized as a median rarity in the CC series and it is especially elusive in MS 66 condition. As one would expect from this first year of issue, the strike is intricately detailed throughout. The luster is thick and heavily frosted, and there are only the most trivial abrasions, and those in unimportant places. Population: 46 in 66, only 1 finer (6/94).
