If the PCGS-certified Gem DMPL 1890-CC in the preceding lot gets away, this NGC-certified alternative represents a rare second bidding opportunity for advanced collectors. Strongly reflective fields support smartly impressed, satin-textured design elements. The entire package is untoned apart from subtle champagne-pink iridescence along the upper obverse and lower reverse borders. Uncommonly well preserved and smooth with truly outstanding eye appeal.<p>Despite its generous mintage the 1890-CC is one of the scarcer CC-Mint Morgans in today's market, with even the lower mintage 1880-CC, 1881-CC and 1885-CC more plentiful in Mint State (to say nothing of the truly common 1882-CC, 1883-CC and 1884-CC). On the other hand, the 1890-CC is one of the more frequently encountered Carson City Mint Morgan dollars in worn condition, suggesting that many were released into circulation. Additional coins entered commercial channels from the San Francisco Mint during the early 1940s. Mint State survivors are largely from releases to dealers and collectors during the 1930s, 1940s and 1950s, the source of these coins the storage vaults in the San Francisco Mint and Washington, D.C.'s Treasury Department Building. The MS-60 to MS-63 grade range encompasses most of these pieces, and even in solidly graded MS-64 the 1890-CC is scarce by the standards of the type. Gems in MS-65 are rare, while with a DMPL/DPL designation, as here, the 1890-CC is an important strike and condition rarity at this level.
