1884-CC S$1

Description

1884-CC Morgan Dollar, PCGS MS-66. This 1884-CC Morgan Dollar represents a popular Carson City issue from the final decade of the Morgan dollar series. While the 1884-CC ranks among the most common dates within the entire Morgan dollar production run, the desirable CC mintmark ensures strong collector demand and a substantial premium over Philadelphia Mint counterparts. The coin is graded PCGS MS-66, placing it firmly in the gem category and well above the typical MS-64 and MS-63 examples that dominate the market for this date. The 1884-CC was produced with a mintage of 1,136,000 pieces at the Carson City Mint. Most surviving examples entered the numismatic market through the famous Treasury hoard discovered in the 1960s and dispersed to collectors during the late 1970s and early 1980s. This historical provenance has ensured consistent availability of high-quality specimens. The present MS-66 example represents a significant find within the typical distribution, as gems become noticeably scarcer, and pieces grading MS-67 or finer are genuinely uncommon. This Morgan Dollar is composed of 90% silver and 10% copper, weighing 26.73 grams with a diameter of 38.1mm and reeded edge, as designed by George T. Morgan. PCGS has certified this piece under certificate number 61854867. With a current price guide value of $1,250, this gem-quality Carson City dollar offers strong eye appeal and collector recognition.
