1880-CC Morgan Dollar Rev of 78 XF
The 1880 Morgan Dollar struck at the Carson City Mint represents a fascinating chapter in American coinage. Minted in 90 percent silver, this coin contains approximately 0.7734 troy ounces of precious metal. It belongs to the celebrated Morgan Dollar series, which originally circulated from 1878 to 1904, with a brief final appearance in 1921. This specific specimen survives in Extra Fine condition, preserving the distinct details of its historic engraving. On the obverse, a left-facing profile of Lady Liberty is depicted with a uniquely American appearance. She wears a Phrygian cap decorated with native agricultural elements, specifically cotton and wheat. The reverse features a bald eagle with its wings spread wide, grasping both an olive branch and arrows to symbolize a desire for peace alongside a readiness for national defense. This particular variety displays the reverse design of 1878, paired with the famous 'CC' mint mark of the Nevada branch mint.
