1882-CC Morgan Dollar. PCGS graded MS-65 Deep Mirror Prooflike. A glittering white gem with hints of light golden toning around the edges; scarce in this condition since '82-CC more often comes frosty instead of prooflike. Some Silver Dollar researchers believe the first coins off off new dies are the ones with prooflike (or in this instance, Deep Mirro) surfaces. All too soon, the pressure and wear of striking causes the dies to revert to more typical "luster" which is the result of metal flow-lines streaming outwards from the centers on both sides (PCGS # 97135) .
Estimated Value $1,200 - 1,300.
