1891-CC Morgan Dollar BU (GSA)
The 1891 Morgan silver dollar stands as a remarkable artifact from the historic Carson City Mint in Nevada. Struck with the famous CC mint mark, this coin contains 0.7734 troy ounces of silver, representing a precious metal purity of 0.900. Its presence carries the distinct character of late nineteenth century American coinage, preserved in brilliant uncirculated condition. On the obverse side, the profile of Liberty is depicted wearing a Phrygian cap. The design is encircled by thirteen stars, representing the original colonies, alongside the year of issue and the Latin motto E Pluribus Unum. The word Liberty is also clearly inscribed on her band. The reverse displays a bald eagle with its wings spread, grasping arrows and an olive branch in its talons. This central image is accompanied by the inscriptions United States of America, One Dollar, and the national motto In God We Trust. This combination of powerful iconography and regional minting history makes the coin a captivating subject for study.
