1875-1878-CC Carson City Liberty Seated Quarter Culls
The Carson City Mint holds a legendary status in American numismatics, and these silver quarters minted from 1875 to 1878 carry the unmistakable "CC" mint mark of that famous Nevada facility. Struck in 90% fine silver with a precious metal content of 0.17875 troy ounces, these coins represent a fascinating era of frontier coinage. The obverse features the classic Liberty Seated design created by Christian Gobrecht. Liberty is shown resting on a rock, holding a staff topped with a liberty cap in one hand while her other hand supports a shield. The reverse displays a perched eagle with a shield draped across its chest, gripping a branch and three arrows in its talons. Even in heavily worn, cull condition, these quarters offer a tangible connection to the Old West and the silver riches of the Comstock Lode.
