Description
1893-CC Morgan Dollar, MS63
'A Numismatic Find'
1893-CC $1 MS63 PCGS. A small mintage of 677,000 Morgan
silver dollars was achieved at the Carson City Mint in 1893, the
last year of production for that facility. The issue is scarce, in
the context of the series. Q. David Bowers considers MS-63 the
Optimal Collecting Grade for the date, and calls an attractive
specimen at the Select level "a numismatic find." The present coin
is a pleasing example, with lustrous, mostly brilliant surfaces,
highlighted by hints of russet over the high points. A few handling
marks and luster grazes define the grade.(Registry values: P8, N2998)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 255S, PCGS# 7222, GSID# 7610)
