Description

Lightly Toned, Select 1879-CC Dollar

1879-CC $1 MS63 PCGS. Wisps of pale lilac patina decorate the peripheral areas on each side. A mostly brilliant and semi-prooflike representative that has a very smooth reverse. The cheek has a few tiny contact marks that are entirely appropriate for the grade. One of the scarcest Carson City dates of the series, the 1879-CC did not turn up in vast quantity in the GSA hoard, unlike the lower mintage 1881-CC and 1885-CC issues.
