1890-CC 'Tail Bar' Dollar, MS64
Well Known Carson City Variety

1890-CC $1 Tail Bar, VAM-4, MS64 PCGS. A Top 100 Variety. The straight die gouge beneath the fletchings can be identified at arm's length with the unaided eye, and makes the "Tail Bar" VAM the most easily attributed of the Morgan dollar series. The "Tail Bar" comprises approximately 10% of all Uncirculated 1890-CC dollars, a better Carson City issue. This lustrous and essentially brilliant near-Gem has a good strike and a clean obverse. Nearly unobtainable any finer.
From The Alan Berkowsky #7 PCGS Registry Set of Morgan Dollars.
