Brilliant MS63 Deep Mirror Prooflike 1889-CC Dollar

1889-CC $1 MS63 Deep Mirror Prooflike PCGS. The 1889-CC is the key to the set of Carson City dollars, and it is also one of the "Big Five" in the Morgan dollar series, a list that includes the 1884-S, 1892-S, 1893-S, and 1901. Both of these collecting currents ensure the desirability and collectibility of the 1889-CC dollar. This issue is known in all grades and is found even in AG-Good condition, as silver and gold coins were the preferred medium of exchange in the Western states in the 19th century.
This piece has bright, sparkling, mirror-like fields that set up moderate cameo contrast against the devices. The design elements are fully struck also, and each side is brilliant throughout.(Registry values: P9, N4719)
