The 1889-CC Morgan Silver Dollar stands as one of the most coveted coins in American numismatics, minted at the Carson City facility in Nevada during a year of relatively low production. With only 350,000 pieces struck, this coin’s scarcity is compounded by the historical romance surrounding the Carson City Mint, which operated in the heart of the Comstock Lode silver mining region. Right now, 1889-CC Morgan Silver Dollar Coins in certified condition are available from JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
Each 1889-CC Morgan Silver Dollar Coin is available here with a plastic slab and a VF20 grade. Coins in this condition are at the bottom of the Very Fine range and have medium to light wear overall, though the general details are all still visible.
America in 1889 was navigating a period of dynamic industrial growth amid significant economic tensions, particularly surrounding monetary policy and the divide between agrarian and urban interests. The nation was in the midst of rapid industrialization, with steel production, railroads, and manufacturing driving expansion. Farmers and silver mining interests were increasingly vocal about the tight money supply under the gold standard, arguing that deflation was crushing agricultural prices and rural prosperity—pressures that would soon contribute to the founding of the Populist movement.
The obverse of 1889-CC Morgan Dollar Coins comes with a portrait of Lady Liberty. Designed in 1878 by George T. Morgan, this left-profile bust of Liberty captures her with a Phrygian cap, a laurel wreath, and a coronet crown on her head.
On the reverse of 1889-CC Morgan Silver Dollars, you’ll find the heraldic eagle. Also designed by George T. Morgan, the image shows a front-facing bald eagle with the arrows of war and the olive branch of peace in its talons.
