<Our item number 107877><B>1870-CC Liberty Seated Dollar. AU-50.</B> Light hairlines. A well struck and still lustrous light gray specimen of this first year from the Carson mint, a coin featuring relatively smooth surfaces on both sides. Somewhat finer than typically seen for the date, even with the cleaning, with excellent design details at the center on both sides. Only 11,758 coins struck <B>&#40;PCGS # 6964&#41;</B>. <BR><BR>The 1870-CC silver dollar was the first issue produced at the Carson City Mint, which quickly focused on the half dollar denomination. Halves were favored by silver depositors since they received greater face value in return &#40;the tenor of the half dollar having been reduced in 1853 while the silver dollar was left unchanged. Few silver dollars were struck, yet this mintage is still larger than the combined mintage of the 1871-CC, 1872-CC, and 1873-CC seated dollars. It is for this reason, collectors prefer to select an 1870-CC for their holdings is only a single CC-mint represent ative is desired. <BR>Estimated Value &#36;2,000-2,300. <BR><BR>Our item number 107877<BR><IMAGES><P ALIGN="CENTER"><IMG SRC="http://www.goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/41jpegs/107877.jpg"> <BR><IMG SRC="http://www.goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/41jpegs/107877N2.jpg"> </P></IMAGES>
