1891-CC GSA Hoard, Hard package One Dollar MS Values
Details
The 1891-CC GSA Morgan dollars are scarcer than most other GSA dollars, as only 5,687 were offered in the Great Silver Sale, from a much larger total production figure of 1,618,000 for the issue. They are known mostly in hard packs and uncirculated condition, and all 1891-CC GSA dollars are regarded as scarce collectibles by Morgan dollar enthusiasts, who will pay premiums for these coins when necessary. Any PLs and DMPLs that exist are very rare and enjoy huge demand.
Obverse: Portrait of Liberty centered. On the left are found 7 stars with the words E*PLURIBUS*UNUM followed by 6 stars on the right. The date is positioned at the bottom.
Reverse: The heraldic eagle is centered holding a bunch of arrows and branch surrounded by and olive leaves. The words UNITED STATES OF AMERICA * ONE DOLLAR frame the periphery. Mint mark, if any, appears above the letters DO of DOLLAR.
