Lot 1662
1879-CC Morgan Dollar. Capped die. PCGS graded MS-62. A nice white coin. A silvery specimen glowing with choice original mint bloom. A rounded impression was left by the stamp of the dies that struck this, but only at the exact center (hair above the ear, and some of the breast detail). Elsewhere the design elements are struck in no uncertain terms by the dies, leaving behind their sharp impression. It is good to be reminded every so often that the so-called "Capped Die" is actually a Medium Over Small Mintmark, the results of which went awry and ended up looking jumbled. Pop 264. (PCGS # 7088) .
Estimated Value $3,000 - 3,300.
