Impeccable Supurb Gem CSA Dollar<br />
1397<br />
1397 1881-CC GSA 1 Dollar. NGC MS67. A better-date Carson City issue from the storied Government<br />
Services Administration hoard that was released to the public during the Nixon administration.<br />
Most dates, including the 1881-CC, can be located with limited searching in lower mint state grades,<br />
but the scarcer dates often become difficult as premium Gems and, certainly as is the case of the present,<br />
truly rare and important at the Superb Gem level. As it is, the present dollar, in its original GSA<br />
holder, represents one of the very finest GSA dollars of any date remaining and is tied for the finest<br />
1881-CC graded by NGC (NGC is the only company that certifies GSA holders intact). The surfaces<br />
maintain thick nearly mark-free frost on both sides with the addition of a thin crescent of rainbow<br />
color on the reverse that ads to its personality. The strike is perfect. An important item not<br />
only as a coin, but also as a piece of Americana. Housed in its origianl box of issue with certificate<br />
of authenticity. An NGC grading band has been placed around the original GSA holder to preserve<br />
the original nature of this item and detect any future tampering. (photo) Est. 7,000-9,000<br />
