***Auction Highlight*** 1889-cc Morgan Dollar $1 Graded au58 Details By SEGS (fc)
***Auction Highlight*** 1889-cc Morgan Dollar $1 Graded au58 Details By SEGS. Up for Auction is the King of the Carson City Morgans, The legendary 1889-cc. The 1889-CC is the lesser of the two Morgan dollar keys, being modestly more available than the 1893-S. Yet, it is far and away the scarcest Carson City issue, and it is arguably more widely sought than the 1893-S due to the subset of collectors seeking to assemble only the Carson City Mint collection; For those collectors, the 1889-CC is the capstone of the set. Examples of this issue are occasionally seen in Mint State, although eye appeal varies widely. This Borderline Uncirculated example has the faintest trace of friction over the eagle's breast and Liberty's cheek but retains full luster in the fields. One stray mark in the obverse accounts for the details grades, but it is not distracting at all. The brilliant, vibrant cartwheel effect is exceptional and eye-catching, and only light handling marks are evident. I have included another au58 for your comparison. A Corey's Pick, Bid to Win, Don't let it get Away, you might not find its equal Coin. I give this coin my highest recommendation
