1879-CC Silver Dollar, MS63
Deep Mirror Prooflike
VAM-3, Capped Die

1879-CC $1 Capped Die, VAM-3, MS63 Deep Mirror Prooflike PCGS. Ex: DT Miller. A Top 100 Variety. The Capped Die variety is one of the most famous VAMs in the Morgan dollar series. Although examples are relatively plentiful in non-Prooflike grades, Deep Mirror Prooflike coins are rare overall, with only a handful of pieces in the current grade at PCGS. The strike is sharp, complementing frosty mint luster and deeply reflective fields. Cameo contrast adorns each side. Minor field marks on the obverse prevent a finer numeric grade, although the quality is excellent in the context of Deep Mirror Prooflike VAM-3 Morgans. Population: 5 in 63 Deep Mirror Prooflike, 6 finer (11/23).
