Notes:
This date is only slightly more common than the 1892, nearly
twice as rare as the 1891-CC, and fifty percent more common than the
1893-CC. The most frequently encountered Uncirculated grade is
MS-63, followed by MS-62, then MS-64. Gems are scarce but
available and a mere handful of coins exists above the MS-65
level. The finest examples graded by PCGS are 2 MS-67's,
8 MS-65 Prooflikes, and 2 MS-65 Deep Mirror Prooflikes.
