- Historic 1870-CC Silver Dollar
Rare Mint State Preservation
1870-CC Liberty Seated Silver Dollar. OC-1. Rarity-4-. MS-62 (PCGS). OGH.
Light gold and silver iridescence add to the appeal of this bright and flashy silver dollar. Lustrous surfaces are predominantly satiny, yet with semi-reflective qualities very much in evidence in the fields. The strike is bold to sharp throughout, and the eye appeal is superior for both the issue and the assigned grade.
The first of only four Carson City Mint Liberty Seated silver dollars, the 1870-CC, with a mintage of 12,462 pieces, is also the most available in today's market. The novelty of these large silver coins with the CC mintmark resulted in a fair number of examples being set aside as keepsakes at the time of issue, as well as being plucked from circulation in later years. In his outstanding reference The Confident Carson City Coin Collector, Volume I(2020), Carson City Mint expert Rusty Goe estimates that 650 to 875 coins are extant in all grades. Most are well worn and grade no finer than VF. The author's estimate for Mint State survivors dwindles to just 23 to 28 pieces. With impressive quality and pleasing eye appeal, this is an outstanding offering worthy of intense bidder attention.
PCGS Population: 8; 8 finer.
PCGS# 6964. NGC ID: 24ZE.
