|
1885-CC GSA NGC MS-63.
|
|
Fields display relatively clean texture compared to the typical 1885-CC, since abrasions are distributed with nice consistency across both sides. Aluminum-white with active, rotating luster. |

1885-CC GSA NGC MS-64.

1885-CC, and an 1888-S, both NGC MS-62.

1885-CC NGC MS-65 CAC.

1885-CC PCGS MS-63DMPL, and an 1885-O PCGS MS-64DMPL.

Spectacular, flashy coins comprise this duo, offering amazing eye-appeal that aspires to full white brilliance. 1885-CC grades MS-63 DMPL, and may have limited upside potential due to a noisy cheek,... |

|
1885-CC PCGS MS-64.

VAM-2. Untoned, with fields shimmering under heavy silvery luster. Liberty's portrait is rather well abraded, something collectors have come to expect from Carson City dollars at the MS-64 level. |

1885-CC GSA MS-65.

The Knob Lick GSA Collection. VAM-3. MS-65 or very nearly so, although a sliver of greyish toning points at Liberty's temple. 1885-CC represents a somewhat tougher date in the series at high grade,... |

1885-CC PCGS MS-65 CAC.
|
|
Mintage of barely a quarter-million pieces helps explain why 1885-CC is always a more expensive Carson City dollar in GEM grade. Shimmering white luster envelopes this CACed example, and the strike... |

1885-CC GSA NGC MS-66.

1885-CC PCI MS-64 and 1903-O PCI MS-63.
|
|
PCI has encapsulated this pair of mintmarked Morgan dollars, with any alternate opinion expressed in [brackets]. 1885-CC shows a grade of MS-64, and this seems reasonable despite quite a profusion of... |

|
1885-CC PCGS MS-64.
|
|
Eggshell-white surfaces exude silky clean appeal, and this would undoubtedly be a full "gem" if not for a moderate supply of luster abrasions on Liberty's cheek and throat. Not one singular abrasion... |

1885-CC GSA MS-64.

1885-CC PCGS MS-65.

|
1885-CC (VAM-8) NGC MS-65.
|
|
VAM-2 is readily attributed by a dash beneath the second "8". Obverse luster is a trifle weak for this gem, while the reverse shines with unquestioned appeal. The rims are gently kissed with... |

1885-CC (VAM-2A) MS-63/minor PVC on reverse.

|
|
The 1885-CC is in a PCGS green label holder graded MS-64, while the 1891-CC is graded NGC MS-63. Curiously, the NGC coin looks a little better than it's higher graded PCGS counterpart, but this could... |

1885-CC MS-63PL.
