1879-CC Morgan Dollar BU (GSA)
The 1879-CC Morgan Silver Dollar represents a fascinating moment in American coinage, minted at the famous Carson City Mint in Nevada. This coin contains 0.7734 ounces of silver with a purity of 0.900. Out of a total mintage of 756,000 pieces, this specimen survives in Brilliant Uncirculated condition, preserving the crisp details of its original strike. On the obverse side, the profile of Liberty is depicted wearing a Phrygian cap, decorated with a band inscribed with the word Liberty. Surrounding her portrait are the thirteen stars representing the original colonies, the date 1879, and the Latin motto E Pluribus Unum. The reverse displays a bald eagle with its wings spread, grasping an olive branch and arrows in its talons. The inscriptions on this side include United States of America, One Dollar, and the motto In God We Trust. Prominently displayed beneath the wreath is the CC mint mark, identifying its origin from the historic Carson City facility.
