Outstanding coins ... Many Thanks for sharing then with us. 
I admit to being a newbie to the Morgan dollar series ... but do enjoy the fine photos and am learning post-by-post.
A few observations/comments ...
My 2010 Red Book shows 2.2 Million 1878-CC minted ... that is a huge number ... wondering how many were melted/lost over the years?
I see fine hairlines on the obverse portrait and fields ... look in particular below Ms. Liberty chin on the obverse ... might just be the photo.
Great coins indeed.

MS details cleaned
It doesn't have quite as much luster as the others so maybe it was dipped in something at some point?
