Owner's Description

With a mintage of only 3,150 coins this key date is very rare in CH AU with original surfaces. Sharply struck with beautiful deep navy/olive colored toning on both sides. Just a touch of high point wear is evident under the natural patina. A glorious example of a beautiful and naturally toned seated dollar with great eye appeal.

Repeating a standard scenario for early gold and silver issues from this coinage facility, the 1872-CC dollars were routinely released into local and regional commerce. Some were likely shipped to China, where there was a great appetite for silver metal. In his cataloging the August 2012 sale of the Battle Born Collection, Carson City Mint expert Rusty Goe estimates that 250 to 300 exist today in all grades, with only 16 to 19 in Mint State.
