Seated Dollars
1872-CC $1 MS62 PCGS. OC-1, High R.3. Only four Liberty Seated silver dollar issues were emitted from the Carson City Mint from 1870 to 1873. PCGS and NGC have certified only 74 Mint State examples of all four issues combined, including 34 examples of the 1870-CC, seven of the 1871-CC, 26 of the 1872-CC, and seven of the 1873-CC. Those figures undoubtedly include an unknown number of resubmissions. Among the 12 Mint State 1872-CC dollars that PCGS has examined is a single MS65 that is held in a long-term collection, followed by two that grade MS63 and five that grade MS62. In our own sales since 1993, the present offering is the 25th appearance of Mint State 1872-CC silver dollars, those appearance representing just 15 different examples. One example graded MS64 appeared in two sales. We have offered no others finer than the present piece.
This example displays deeply toned smoke-gray and copper-gold surfaces over slightly muted underlying luster. The bold strike has brought up all of the star centrils, and there are no singular abrasions. Only the muted luster has likely prevented an even finer grade. Population: 5 in 62, 3 finer (3/17).
