Description
1889-CC Morgan Dollar, MS62
Nearly Full Prooflike
1889-CC $1 MS62 PCGS. VAM-2. Ex: Desert Find. Although
scarce in Mint State, the 1889-CC Morgan can be found with nice
field reflectivity. This MS62 example from the spectacular Nevada
desert find displays such mirroring, even if it is just shy of a
Prooflike designation from PCGS. If we saw this coin in a Prooflike
holder, we would not have questioned it at all -- such is the
quality of the eye appeal. The coin is brilliant and boldly struck,
with frosty luster throughout the devices. Grade-limiting abrasions
are light and scattered, posing limited visual impact.
Additionally, this coin has not yet been reviewed by CAC for high
quality.Die lines in LIBERTY and throughout the recesses of the reverse motifs identify the VAM-2 dies, although the spindly crack through the base of the date has not yet emerged.(Registry values: P9, N4719)
