Splendid 1885-CC Morgan Dollar, MS67

1885-CC $1 MS67 NGC. While always a popular Carson City issue because of its low mintage and high availability in Mint State, the 1885-CC is seldom available in such a superior grade as this piece. Fully struck in all areas, this brilliant coin displays the usual thick mint frost that Carson City coins are known for. However, Carson City dollars are also known for heavy, numerous abrasions--which this piece is profoundly lacking. The cheek of Liberty is smooth and rounded. The fields have just a hint of semiprooflikeness, which adds even more to the coin's overall attractiveness and desirability. Census: 57 in 67, 5 finer (3/09).(Registry values: P4, N2998)
