Description
1873-CC Trade Dollar, MS64
A Rarity This Fine
1873-CC T$1 Misplaced Date, FS-301, MS64 PCGS. FS-301 shows
the top of a misplaced 7 in the dentils beneath the primary 87 of
the date. The Carson City Mint had little demand for silver dollar
coinage until the Trade dollar was authorized -- a heavier silver
dollar intended to be struck in quantity and shipped abroad for
trade with Oriental merchants. Carson City struck 124,500 Trade
dollars in 1873, the first year of issue. Mint State survivors of
this date are scarce overall, and Choice examples are incredibly
rare. This piece is softly frosted and lustrous with only minimal
signs of surface contact. Liberty's head and the eagle's right
(facing) leg are weak, but most other design elements show good
definition. Both sides have a rich midnight-blue crescent encased
in amber and violet that runs from 6 to 12 o'clock along the
border. An appealing example in exceptional condition. Population:
6 in 64, 1 finer (11/18).From The Greensboro Collection, Part VII.
