I've had a checked out by numerous people and it is real I just don't know how to go about getting this thing graded and I've had people wanting to buy it off me. Any help would be appreciated thank you.. I actually updated this post and added to other pictures it'll be called coin left for me pick number two    Edited by Roma1967 04/20/2020 12:48 pm

 to the CCF! If you can post full images of both sides properly oriented we may be able to help. The only thing we can tell from this picture is the Carson City mint mark.

An 1889CC dollar is listed at $445 in G and $600 in VG (according to a 2 year old price guide).

Currently around $400-425 in Good, but this coin is in Fair condition at best and worth considerably less.  to the CCF

Hi John1 .. my Grandad left me more Barber dimes Indian Head pennies Buffalo nickels and a crap load of silver quarters but only two of these 1 from 1878 and this one from 1899. I'm probably going to sell the Morgans and keep all the rest of the coins I'm interested more of the smaller ones not the large size like these I know how rare this one is in any condition but still like the small ones. Thank you

In my opinion it will not grade. Looks like environmental damage and scratches.
