PCGS - Carson City
Morgan dollars bearing the famous "CC" mint mark are at the top of many coin collectors' want lists. Struck at the Carson City Mint in Nevada from 1878 through 1893, these so-called CC
Morgan dollars are symbolic of the Old West and the massive silver lodes that were discovered there during the latter decades of the 19th century. Carson City
Morgan dollars are generally quite scarce, with several dates yielding either six-figure or low seven-figure mintages and survival rates but a fraction of those mintages.
It's not far-fetched to categorize even the most common of CC
Morgan dollars as at least semi-keys. One of these issues, the 1889-CC (with a mintage of 350,000), is a bona fide series key date. Many
Morgan dollar enthusiasts will focus their Carson City Mint pursuits on the regular-issue coinage from the CC Mint. All told, there are 13 distinct Carson City issues counted among the regular-issue business strikes, not considering branch-mint proofs and the myriad varieties known among CC Morgans. However, one of the most important CC
Morgan dollar varieties wasn't even struck until seven years after the last regular-issue Carson City Morgan rolled off the presses!
