Description

Popular 1879-CC Morgan Dollar, MS62

1879-CC $1 MS62 PCGS. Normal Mintmark. A few stray abrasions and reeding marks on Liberty's cheek likely account for the grade, but much appeal is present. The satiny silver surfaces show radiant cartwheel luster, and the surfaces show a remarkable consistency of texture. Light die clashing appears on the reverse, with a small die crack connecting NITED with the eagle's nearby wingtip. A nice example of this popular key date, seemingly high-end for the assigned grade.(Registry values: P7, N1793)
