- 1881-CC Morgan Silver Dollar. MS-67+ (NGC).
This is a captivating Gem, displaying satiny luster in the fields that contrasts subtly with the more frosty texture on the devices. The strike is exceptionally sharp across all regions, imparting a network of thin die cracks that connect the peripheral elements on each side. Virtually untouched and incredibly attractive.
The 1881-CC boasts the second lowest mintage of all of the Morgan dollars struck at the Carson City Mint. Produced to a quantity of just 296,000 pieces, this original mintage was considerably scanter than those of the more famous 1889-CC and 1879-CC issues. However, few 1881-CC dollars reached circulation, with most being distributed throughout the 20th century in treasury releases and the GSA sales of the 1970s. While Mint State examples are readily available, most of these are confined to grades of MS-66 and below by bagmarks and other minor blemishes. Superb Gems like the present are extremely rare, with NGC having graded only 9 coins at the present grade and just 4 finer at MS-68.
NGC Census: 9; just 4 finer in MS-68.
PCGS# 7126. NGC ID: 2547.
