Description

1873-CC Seated Dollar, Unc Details
Major Carson City Rarity
NGC Coin Explorer Plate Coin

1873-CC--Cleaned--NGC Details. Unc. OC-1, High R.4. Osburn-Cushing Die State b/b, faintly clashed. The 1873-CC is the rarest of the Carson City Seated dollars and one of the scarcest issues in this series overall. Recent studies suggest that fewer than 100 pieces may survive. Certified population figures are undoubtedly inflated by resubmissions and crossovers, but a study of auction records for the 1873-CC reveals the true scarcity of the issue. The vast majority of the coins we have handled, many of which were duplicate appearances, have graded in the VF to low-end AU range, including many Details-designated pieces.

The 1873-CC emerges as a premier rarity in the Seated dollar series in Mint State. NGC and PCGS combined list nine Uncirculated submissions, although we believe this number to be inaccurate. Since 1993, we have handled only two different Uncirculated coins. The most recent of these was the MS61 NGC piece in the Eugene H. Gardner Collection, Part III (Heritage, 5/2015), lot 98573. That piece realized $105,750.

The Partrick coin offered here is cleaned, and is thus designated Uncirculated Details by NGC. This piece is plated on the NGC Coin Explorer webpage for the 1873-CC issue. Each side is brilliant and satiny, with reflectivity in the fields that produces pleasant visual appeal. Hairlines scattered across each side betray the light cleaning noted by NGC, although handling abrasions are slight. The 1873-CC Seated dollar is among the most challenging issues in the series to locate with good eye appeal at any grade level. The Partrick coin is surprisingly pleasing in that regard.
