Description

Select 1893-CC Morgan Dollar
Sharp Strike, Minimal Handling Marks

1893-CC $1 MS63 PCGS. The 1893-CC is always in demand because of its low-mintage and its status as the last Carson City Morgan dollar. The present coin is an exceptional example of this challenging date, with vibrant, frosty mint luster. The surfaces exhibit a minimum number of distracting handling marks, which is usually a problem area for this issue. What sets this coin apart is its sharp strike, much superior to the soft definition seen on a typical '93-CC. Q. David Bowers considers MS63 the Optimal Collecting Grade for this issue.
