1890-CC Morgan Dollar MS-63 NGC
The 1890 Morgan Silver Dollar stands as a fascinating survivor from a bygone era of American coinage. Minted in the late nineteenth century, this specific silver coin contains 0.7734 troy ounces of 90 percent pure silver. It belongs to the celebrated Morgan Dollar series, which remains one of the most widely recognized and studied coin designs in United States history. What makes this particular specimen especially compelling is its origin and preservation. It features the famous "CC" mint mark, indicating it was struck at the Carson City Mint in Nevada, a facility deeply tied to the silver rushes of the American West. Out of a total mintage of 2,309,041 coins produced at this location in 1890, this piece has survived in remarkable condition, certified by professional grading services at Mint State 63 (MS-63).
