1879-CC GSA Morgan Silver Dollar. Clear CC. MS-63 (NGC).

Frosty and untoned, both sides of this lovely Choice example also sport bold to sharp striking detail throughout the design. The low mintage 1879-CC was produced to the extent of just 756,000 pieces, and it is generally regarded as the scarcest Carson City Mint silver dollar of the 1878 to 1885 era. Much of this issue's elusiveness in today's market can be explained by the paucity of examples distributed through the various GSA sales of 1972 to 1980. Only 4,123 examples were included in those sales, a total that represents just 0.50% of the mintage. Rare in an original GSA holder, this appealing coin is sure to catch the eye of advanced Morgan dollar and/or Carson City Mint enthusiasts. The original box and card are included, the lid of the box nearly detached from the base.

PCGS# 518848. NGC ID: 253T.

Estimate: $ 8000
