1882-CC Morgan Dollar in G4

What does G4 mean on an 1882-CC Morgan dollar?

An 1882-CC Morgan dollar graded G4 is that coin in one particular state of preservation — the date and the mint mark are already fixed, and G4 is what a grader called the surface that survived. What that looks like on this coin is below. The nearest grade of this date this site does have a researched figure for is Very Good (VG-8), at $154 to $202, from sales and public data.

What G4 means

An 1882-CC Morgan dollar in Good (G-4) is worn evenly across its whole surface, and the design reads as an outline rather than a relief: the hair above Liberty’s ear and the cotton bolls in her cap are flat, the eagle’s breast feathers and the tops of its wings show no detail at all, and LIBERTY on the headband, E PLURIBUS UNUM and the date are still readable with the rim beginning to merge into the lettering.

A slab, a dealer’s list or a price guide may write this grade G-4. They are the same grade and the same 1882-CC Morgan dollar.

Where this grade sits

The grades an 1882-CC Morgan dollar is given run from PO1 to MS70. One step up from G4 is Good (G-6). In general terms, the higher the grade the more the coin is worth.
