Impressive 1893-CC Dollar, MS64

1893-CC $1 MS64 PCGS. This exceptional near-Gem displays marvelous prooflike surfaces that reveal just a few minute contact marks and luster grazes that barely preclude full Gem classification. In this regard, David Bowers (2005) writes: "Mint State 1893-CC dollars are well known for being extensively bagmarked, some actually appearing quite abused. Accordingly, the majority of Mint State pieces are in lower MS grades. A piece MS63 or finer, with minimum bagmarks, is a numismatic find and is very special."
Save for the usual softness in the centers, the design elements are quite well struck. Housed in a green-label holder. This piece exhibits the highest grade that most collectors will encounter, and is also among the best in technical quality and aesthetic appeal. PCGS has seen only eight finer.(Registry values: P8, N2998)
