Elusive Superb Gem 1883-CC Morgan Dollar

1883-CC $1 MS67 NGC. As a date, the 1883-CC is considered common (but only in the context of Morgan dollars from the Carson City Mint). In Superb Gem quality, however, this issue is elusive and highly regarded. The obverse is a patchwork of sea-green, aqua, lavender, and gold-orange, while the reverse holds this same color scheme only along the lower and right border. Lustrous surfaces reveal design elements that are sharply struck, with only the hair above Liberty's ear showing softness. A few minute marks, concealed within the toning, are noted on Liberty's face. Population: 52 in 67, 0 finer (10/04).(#7144) (Registry values: P2, N2998)
