Lot Description

This silver-tinged and boldly struck example displays bold contrast between satiny devices and mirrored fields. One of the more widely represented Carson City Mint Morgan dollars in the various GSA sales of the 1970s, 131,529 examples of the 1880-CC were distributed to collectors by that government agency. This total includes both "perfect" and overdate examples. While obtainable enough in lower grades, 1880-CC dollars are rare with the combination of prooflike finish and premium Gem Mint State quality offered here.
