- 1871-CC Liberty Seated Silver Dollar. OC-1, the only known dies. Top 30 Variety. Rarity-4+. Misplaced Date. VF-20 (PCGS).
A brilliant example that retains not only bold VF detail throughout the design, but traces of the original mint finish that are best appreciated with the aid of direct lighting. The 1871-CC is the second of only four Liberty Seated dollar issues struck at the Carson City Mint. With only 1,376 pieces produced it has the lowest mintage in this highly select group, although it is not the rarest. The final year 1873-CC is more elusive due to a large number of the 2,300 coins struck having been melted after the Act of February 12, 1873 abolished the standard silver dollar. Survivors of the 1871-CC are certainly rare in their own right, of course, and Carson City Mint expert Rusty Goe provided an estimate of just 100 to 120 coins extant in all grades in his commentary in our August 2012 sale of the Battle Born Collection, a sale that still echoes in the halls of numismatics. With many survivors impaired, and only a handful in Mint State, this VF-20 would serve as a highlight in many numismatic cabinets.
