1893-CC Dollar, Brilliant MS64
Well-Frosted Final-Year Example

1893-CC $1 MS64 PCGS. Although the famous Carson City Mint closed its doors for coinage operations on June 1, 1893, it managed a meaningful production of 677,000 silver dollars. The Redfield hoard had at least two bags of 1893-CC dollars, but most of those were of lesser quality than this splendid, Choice Uncirculated coin. Virtually no 1893-CC dollars made their way into the GSA sales. From a practical standpoint, MS64 is the finest grade available to collectors. This brilliant near-Gem coin shows only a few minor abrasions and features an above-average strike. Frost-white cartwheel luster rolls across both sides. PCGS has certified just 15 numerically finer coins, plus 48 examples in 64+ (2/21).
