Not Sold Description
Memorable 1879-CC Dollar
MS64 Deep Mirror Prooflike
1879-CC $1 MS64 Deep Mirror Prooflike NGC. Not only is this
spectacular coin the first key CC-mint issue in the series, but it
is a near-Gem with Deep Mirror Prooflike certification from NGC,
and as such also a rarity and an eternally popular Morgan dollar.
Few such specimens of the 1879-CC exist, since most examples of the
issue show rather shallow prooflike tendencies, or none at all.
This is a true Deep Mirror Prooflike, however, with lavish mint
frost on the devices and limitless mirrors in the fields, yielding
the coveted black-on-silver appearance. A couple of light scrapes
prevent an even finer grade, but this tremendous coin has much to
delight the viewer. Census: 11 in 64 Deep Mirror Prooflike, 1 finer
(4/09).(Registry values: P7, N2998)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 253T, PCGS# 97087, GSID# 7708)
