1881-CC Morgan Dollar MS-64 NGC (GSA)
The 1881 Morgan silver dollar minted in Carson City represents a fascinating era of American coinage. This particular specimen is certified in Mint State 64 (MS-64) condition and remains preserved in a GSA holder, a detail that links it directly to historical government treasury hoards. Struck with 0.7734 troy ounces of fine silver, the coin showcases the bold artistry of late nineteenth-century American currency. On the obverse side, the profile of Liberty is depicted wearing a Phrygian cap, decorated with a band inscribed with the word "LIBERTY". The reverse displays a heraldic bald eagle clutching both an olive branch and arrows, symbolizing a balance of peace and readiness. Positioned below the eagle is the famous "CC" mint mark, indicating its origin at the legendary Carson City Mint in Nevada. The inscriptions "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA", "IN GOD WE TRUST", and "ONE DOLLAR" encircle the reverse design, confirming its face value and national identity.
