Could someone please help me with information on the Carson city Collection? I saw a PCGS slabbed 1890 CC silver dollar, that in the description said it was part of the Carson City collection. Also how does the value of this coin relate to exact same coin slabbed without that title?

Thanks, Silver Dollar

In 1918, over 270 million silver dollars, almost all Morgan silver dollars, were recalled by the U.S. Government for melting. Of the 1890 Carson City Morgan silver dollars that survived this massive destruction, most are in circulated condition. Those 1890 CC Morgan silver dollars that remain in uncirculated condition are generally of lower grades (Mint State 62 and below). Coins graded Mint State 64 and above are considered to be quite scarce.

Goldline International, one of the largest and oldest rare coin and precious metals companies in the United States, has recently acquired coins from the Carson City Collection of uncirculated 1890 Morgan silver dollars. These coins are being independently graded and certified and will carry the unique Carson City Collection pedigree on each sonically sealed holder.

Translation:

Goldline bought a bunch of 1890-CC dollars and paid PCGS a hefty fee to put them in slabs with a custom label that says Carson City Collection even though there is no special "collection" that these things came from. But since they now have a special label they can hype them and sell them for a premium price over what they would bring without the special label.

yep just a pedigree that the company paid PCGS to add to the label that really has no bearing like it would if it actually came from a specific specialist in the field that has their pedigree on their collection
