Well-Defined 1870-CC Dollar, Unc Details

1870-CC--Improperly Cleaned--NCS. Unc Details. Variety 2-A. The first-year Carson City issue of any denomination. Fully struck with all devices boldly defined. The notation on the NCS label correctly refers to a lack of luster, especially considering the Uncirculated details. However, the signs of cleaning do not include excessive hairlines like many others with the same designation. Some of the lines observed on both sides are actually die polish lines and are not the result of the impairment. This pale-gray piece represents an attractive alternative for a collector seeking a well-defined example at a reasonable price.(Registry values: N4719)
