- One of the FINEST graded examples at either service, PCGS has only seen 11 in MS65 and five MS65+s graded finer. This is a very important condition rarity for the Morgan dollar collector which presents a major opportunity of the specialist to obtain a Condition Census grade specimen of this highly popular Carson City variety. Bold, frosty mint luster has a warm, pearlescent sheen on both sides, though as you rotate the GEM quality surfaces in a light, hints of semi-Prooflike flash comes to the surface. The sharply struck devices show a nice frosty texture. This visually impressive GEM has a narrow band of amber and cobalt toning at the rims, which fades to a pale golden before yielding to brilliant silver in the central portions of the design, suggestive of long term album storage. A few light traces of contact are noted with the aid of a glass, but do not detract from the absolute GEM quality. The Capped Die variety is avidly sought, and the name is a bit of a misnomer, some catalogers more accurately call it "CC over CC" Listed as a Top 100 variety in the VAM series, it is a popular Red Book listed issue. In the past, the Capped Die was thought of as "a poor man's 1879-CC," but modern research has proven how rare this issue is! PCGS 11, NGC 11. The most recent example sold in December 2018, realizing $38,400 and prior to that, the PFM Collection coin sold in our May 2018 Regency Auction for $45,825. Collector's Universe lists a value of $50,000. With only a handful finer, this is an opportunity to upgrade your set that should not be missed. We anticipate strong bidding here. Cert. Number 37228235 PCGS # 007088
