A highly collectible 1893-CC Morgan Silver Dollar, minted in Carson City, Nevada, during the final year of Morgan Dollar production at this iconic mint. This coin holds significant historical and numismatic value, making it a prized addition to any collection. The obverse features the iconic Liberty head, surrounded by the phrase "E Pluribus Unum" and the 1893 mint year. The reverse displays a detailed heraldic eagle clutching arrows and an olive branch, with "United States of America" and "One Dollar" framing the design. The sought-after "CC" mintmark, located below the wreath on the reverse, adds to its rarity.
Condition:
Graded G-VG (Good to Very Good), this coin shows clear wear typical of circulation, with much of the detail on Liberty’s hair and the eagle's feathers smoothed. The rims remain intact, and the coin displays uniform toning that highlights its age and authenticity. Despite wear, the key details like the date, mint mark, and design elements are still distinguishable, preserving its value as a collectible.
Size:
(1) Morgan Silver Dollar
Historical Significance:
The 1893-CC Morgan Silver Dollar holds a special place in U.S. coinage history as one of the final coins minted at the renowned Carson City Mint, which ceased operations that same year. With a remarkably low mintage of only 677,000 coins, it is among the rarest Morgan Dollars ever produced. This coin represents a pivotal period in American history, symbolizing the nation's westward expansion and the economic importance of silver mining during the late 19th century. Its rarity and connection to the storied Carson City Mint make it a true gem for collectors and historians alike.
