Conditionally Elusive Superb Gem 1884-CC Dollar

1884-CC $1 MS67 PCGS. An 1884-CC Morgan dollar, plentiful in all Mint State grades through Gem MS-65 quality, becomes quite elusive in higher grades, and is almost non-existent when of Superb preservation. The typical Mint State '84-CC Morgan has numerous tiny abrasions and bagmarks from handling during years of storage in the Treasury vaults. Each Treasury audit would cause the bags of Morgans to be tossed about, the coins clanking against each other. This example has remarkably smooth, lustrous surfaces with no serious abrasions. A blush of orange, lavender, aqua-blue, and sea-green toning rests upon the right obverse border. The design elements are sharply struck, with only the hair over Liberty's ear being a touch soft. Population: 50 in 67, 5 finer (9/04).(#7152) (Registry values: P2, N2998)
