Description

1878-CC Morgan Dollar, MS66+
Fully Frosted and Brilliant

1878-CC $1 MS66+ PCGS. CAC. VAM-9. The CC mintmark is tilted right. Each side of this impeccable first-year Carson City Morgan dollar is totally brilliant and thickly frosted. Exceptionally clean surfaces certainly merit the added recognition from PCGS and CAC in the form of a Plus designation and green approval sticker, lacking any mentionable abrasions whatsoever on the cheek or in the obverse fields. The hair over Liberty's ear and the eagle's breast feathers exhibit full strike definition. This coin comes from the Ponderosa Collection, which remains the #1 All-Time Finest PCGS Carson City Morgan Dollars Registry Set, Circulation Strikes. The PCGS Population Report lists six numerically higher submissions for this important and sought-after Nevada mint issue (3/20).
