Description

1880-CC Dollar, MS67
None Graded Higher

1880-CC $1 MS67 NGC. Demand for high-grade Carson City material is strong across all denominations and series, but Morgan dollars in particular seem to capture the hearts and mind of collectors. Part of what makes high-end Nevada mint Morgans so interesting are the numerous forces that work to influence their availability and collectibility. For example, many issues, like the 1880-CC, have low mintages. But they were often also widely held in storage through the mid-20th century. Essentially, relatively few coins were made, a high proportion of them survive, but even that sizeable number is insufficient to fully satisfy demand. In the case of the 1880-CC, examples are widely available through the mid-Uncirculated grade levels. Even Premium Gems are reasonably collectible. However, MS67 representatives are rare and highly sought-after. This piece offers good detail with limited softness on the eagle's breast, which shows faint roller marks. Frosty surfaces are brilliant with a single splash of pale gold color behind the portrait. Census: 23 in 67 (1 in 67+), 0 finer (1/18).
