Description

Boldly Struck 1893-CC Select Dollar

1893-CC $1 MS63 PCGS. Freckles of lilac and sea-green patina enliven the margins of this boldly struck and lustrous better date Carson City Dollar. The reverse is well preserved and the obverse field is relatively clean, while the cheek has faint luster grazes characteristic of the grade. The final issue from the legendary western mint, although the mintmark would surface seven years later (albeit partially effaced) on some New Orleans Mint Dollars. Struck from multiply clashed dies.
