Description

1874-CC Trade Dollar, Scarce MS64
Extensively Shipped to the Orient

1874-CC T$1 MS64 PCGS. CAC. The surfaces show satiny luster in the fields and a sharp strike, with full definition on Liberty's profile and on the eagle too, with sharp claws and even the thigh is well defined. A few nicks on Liberty's cheek and a bag mark above the eagle's head will serve to identify this piece. Toned with golden flecks on the obverse, and a bit of streaky gold on the center of the reverse. Scarcer than the mintage would imply, as the vast majority were sent to the Orient where they have slowly trickled back home with many showing multiple chopmarks to recall their trip overseas. Population: 17 in 64, 2 finer (11/11).
