Description
Select 1889-CC Morgan Dollar
Sought-After Carson City Key
1889-CC $1 MS63 PCGS. The 1889-CC Morgan dollar is a
storied, low-mintage key that inspires intense competition whenever
an example is offered. The issue is the most elusive CC-mint
dollar, tremendously popular with advanced collectors. The present
coin is an attractive Select example, with bright mint luster and
minimal handling marks for the grade. The strike is much sharper
than usually seen, with fine detail present on Liberty's hair and
the eagle's feathers. Examples in Select Mint State condition are
scarce; Q. David Bowers considers MS63 the Optimal Collecting Grade
for the date. Population: 70 in 63, 29 finer (6/10).(Registry values: P9, N4719)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 2559, PCGS# 7190, GSID# 7554)
Metal: 90% Silver, 10% Copper
Weight: 26.73 grams
ASW: 0.77346oz
Mintage: 350,000
