A true rarity and key date for the Morgan dollar series, the 1889-CC is a sought after by far more collectors than supply could possibly fulfill. Scarce in circulated grades and rare in the Mint State levels, this piece inspires strong bids when offered in auction settings.
Gems are extremely rare, as are PLs and DMPLs. Buyers should exercise caution when buying raw versions of this coin, as counterfeits abound. Unless confident in how to identify genuine 1889-CC Morgan dollars, it is best to stick with handling encapsulated specimens certified by reputable TPGs.

Reverse Description
