Pleasing Select 1877-CC Trade Dollar

1877-CC T$1 MS63 PCGS. Ex: Battle Born Collection. The Carson City Mint coined the fewest Trade dollars for any 1877 circulation-strike issue, with just over half a million pieces produced. By contrast, Philadelphia struck over 3 million pieces, and San Francisco issued more than 9.5 million examples, the highest mintage for the series. It is unsurprising that the 1877-CC Trade dollar would be the most highly valued issue for that denomination and year.
This well struck Select coin offers delightful whispers of frost on the devices, and the minimally abraded fields are immensely lustrous. Primarily silver-gray surfaces show elements of blue and golden-tan close to the margins. This issue is a condition rarity any finer, with only nine such pieces graded by PCGS (6/08).(Registry values: N4719)
