Lot Description

A universally frosty alternative to the Prooflike Select Mint State 1889-CC offered above, the present example is actually very similar in overall appearance. Delicate peripheral toning in pinkish-tan is virtually identical, in fact, suggesting that both coins were carefully and originally preserved together for many years (probably decades). The finish here is nearly prooflike, the otherwise frosty texture thinning to clear semi-reflective tendencies in the fields. A sharp strike and freedom from all but a few wispy, well scattered marks round out an impressive list of attributes for this key date, condition rarity, Carson City Mint Morgan dollar.
