The 1879-CC Morgan Dollar offers a glimpse at America’s post-Reconstruction Era coinage. In just its second year of production in 1879, the Morgan Silver Dollar saw a low production volume at Carson City as the young branch mint in the American West got up and running. From an original population of just 756,000 coins, this 1879-CC Morgan Dollar is one of just 812 graded coins remaining from that release. Now, the 1879-CC Morgan Silver Dollar Coin is available online from JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
This 1879-CC Morgan Silver Dollar Coin is available with an MS63 grade. This grade indicates the potential for distracting marks in the primary focal areas, as well as a few scattered or one small patch of hairlines. Overall, the design strikes are well-centered and the legends are clear.
On the obverse of the 1879-CC Morgan Dollar Coin is George T. Morgan’s left-profile portrait of Lady Liberty. This familiar artwork features a classical depiction of Liberty wearing a Phrygian cap, along with a coronet crown and a laurel wreath that complete the design.
The reverse of the 1879-CC Morgan Silver Dollar displays the heraldic eagle. Also created by Morgan, this depiction shows a forward-facing bald eagle with its wings spread outward while its talons hold both the arrows of war and the olive branch of peace.
In 1879 in America, economic conditions remained fragile with continued agricultural distress in rural areas, even as industrial sectors began showing signs of revival. The low mintage would eventually make the 1879-CC one of the more challenging dates for collectors to acquire in higher grades.
