Description

1890-CC $1 MS64 PCGS. CAC. A number of light abrasions on the obverse account for the MS64 grade, but the reverse is exceptionally flawless for a near-Gem example. Thoroughly brilliant and lightly frosted; there is delightful cartwheel luster on each side. Variety enthusiasts will note a faint die crack that runs through the top of UM in UNUM and stars 8 and 9. Although not a scarce issue, the 1890-CC is more difficult to find in near-Gem and better grades compared to some of its Carson City dollar counterparts. (Registry values: P5, N991)
