Morgan Silver Dollar
1893-CC Morgan Silver Dollar. MS-64 (PCGS). OGH.
This example of the Carson City Mint's final silver dollar issue is an impressive strike and condition rarity. Brilliant and highly lustrous, the frosty surfaces are pleasingly smooth overall. The striking detail is remarkable for the issue with razor sharp to full definition even over the central high points. A beautiful coin with much to recommend it to discerning collectors. The Carson City Mint silver dollar series passed into history in 1893 with a mintage of 677,000 pieces. This has long been recognized as a key date issue among CC-Mint Morgans, especially in the finest Mint State grades. The typical Uncirculated 1893-CC is both poorly struck in the centers and very heavily abraded -- the kind of coins that usually pass through PCGS and NGC with a grade of MS-61 or MS-62. Exceptionally well produced and preserved, this lovely near-Gem stands out as a highlight among the Morgan dollars in the Larry H. Miller Collection.
