1892-CC $1

Coin / United States of America / 1892 / Carson City / Morgan Dollars / $1 (One Dollar)

The 1892-CC Morgan dollar is among the subset of the highly popular Carson City dollars, and these are avidly collected by series enthusiasts. Even individuals who aren't necessarily Morgan dollar specialists pursue CC Morgans, owing to the great demand -- and thus premiums -- for these pieces. The 1892-CC dollar is tough in all grades and especially so in Mint State grades, where even lower-end pieces trade at strong premiums. They are readily available up to the grade of MS64, above which the 1892-CC is quite rare. A few pieces are known in the MS67 level. PLs and DMPLs are rare and especially so in the Gem level.
