1892-CC Morgan Dollar (Semi-Prooflike) - Great Eye Appeal

StuartStuart Posts: 9,831 ✭✭✭✭✭
I purchased this 1892-CC Morgan Dollar from Harlan Berk Numismatics (HJB) in December 2010, and thought that it was worth a re-post.

I love this coin's attractive eye appeal, captured beautifully by Mike Printz's excellent photography.

    Very nice CC. Most 92 and 93 are dogs. This is a wonderful exception!!

    It's a treat when you find a '92-cc in a condition close to the more common dates. Congrats.

    Crack and resubmit. That is uncirculated.

    Not surprising to see where you got this nice coin. Mike Printz has a good eye for coins.

    For reference, here are the seller's original eBay auction images for the coin. -- Would you have purchased this coin based solely upon the following images? image

    HJB sent the high resolution images (posted earlier in this thread) at my request to give me a closer look at the coin to more accurately evaluate it prior to bidding. Both David and Mike provided great customer service, and went out of their way to ship the coin to me quickly and securely. It was my first purchase from HJB, and I'm looking forward to doing more business with them in the future.

    Always a fan of DMPL, PL, and even NPL (near or semi PL) Morgan's. This is as nice a 58 as I have ever seen. I don't really see any rub. I'd buy 58's like that any time I could find 'em.

    Same here, no rub whatsoever!

    I would think that should grade at least MS60, if not 62....Cheers, RickO
