Description

Interesting 1879-CC Morgan Dollar
Capped Die MS63 Prooflike

1879-CC $1 Capped Die MS63 Prooflike PCGS. VAM-3, A Top 100 Variety. The 1879-CC Morgan dollar is the first key date in the series. The Capped Die variety resulted when a large CC mintmark was stamped over a smaller, partially effaced CC. Q. David Bowers estimates approximately 400-800 examples are extant with prooflike surfaces in all grades. The issue is rare at the Choice Mint State level. The present coin is sharply struck and there is a significant element of contrast between the devices and the reflective fields. Overall eye appeal is strong. Population: 22 in 63, 25 finer (3/09).(Registry values: P6, N2998)

Coin Index Numbers: (PCGS# 7089, GSID# 7452)

Metal: 90% Silver, 10% Copper
Weight: 26.73 grams
ASW: 0.77346oz
