1879-CC $1 Morgan Dollar PCGS MS65 (CAC)
1879-CC $1
SKU: 34250601
A Gem-level Carson City classic, this 1879-CC $1 Morgan Dollar certified PCGS MS65 and approved by CAC ranks among the finest survivors of one of the most coveted CC-mint issues. With a low original mintage of just 756,000 and intense collector demand, the 1879-CC is a cornerstone for serious Morgan Dollar sets and an aspirational prize for any Carson City specialist.
The 1879-CC is known for two distinct mintmark varieties—an unrusted “normal” CC and the scarcer rusted “Capped Die” (often called the “Capped CC”). While both are avidly collected, the normal mintmark variety is encountered more frequently, with roughly twice the certified population of the Capped Die. Regardless of variety, true Gem examples are rare and highly contested.
Population and rarity
PCGS Population in MS65: 109
Finer at PCGS: just 25 coins (none graded above MS66)
Original mintage: 756,000
These figures underscore the scarcity of CAC-approved Gems, placing this piece in the top echelon for the date.
Why collectors pursue the 1879-CC
A key Carson City silver dollar from the early years of the Morgan series, tied to the Comstock Lode and the romance of the American West
Among the scarcest CC-mint dates, long recognized as a blue-chip CC rarity
While hundreds exist in MS63–MS64, demand keeps prices strong and thins out supply at Gem levels; MS65 and better are notably elusive, with no coins certified finer than MS66
Grading and eye appeal
PCGS MS65: Gem Uncirculated quality with strong luster and excellent surface preservation for the issue
CAC endorsement: Additional assurance of premium quality within the grade—selected for superior eye appeal and overall originality
Specifications (for reference)
Denomination: One Dollar
Composition: 90% silver, 10% copper
ASW: 0.7734 troy oz
Diameter: 38.1 mm
A standout opportunity for both advanced Morgan Dollar collectors and enthusiasts seeking a trophy-level Carson City piece, this 1879-CC PCGS MS65 (CAC) offers historical significance, condition rarity, and market respect—all in one prestigious coin. Inquiries are welcome for certification details and variety confirmation.
