Morgan Silver Dollars struck at the Carson City Mint are closely associated with the rich silver output of Nevada’s Comstock Lode. The Carson City facility operated from 1870 through 1893 and was established to refine and coin silver sourced from the surrounding mining region. Coins produced at this mint feature the distinct “CC” mint mark, identifying their origin and contributing to their lasting interest among collectors. Now, the 1890-CC Morgan Silver Dollar Coin is available online from JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
On the obverse of the 1890-CC Silver Morgan Dollar is George T. Morgan’s portrait of Lady Liberty. This left-facing profile presents Liberty wearing a Phrygian cap adorned with a coronet crown and accented by a laurel wreath. Surrounding the portrait are 13 stars, representing the original colonies, with the date displayed at the bottom of the design.
The reverse of the 1890-CC Morgan Dollar Coin also reflects the work of George T. Morgan. It showcases a heraldic bald eagle in a front-facing view with its wings fully extended. In its talons, the eagle holds arrows, symbolizing readiness for defense, and an olive branch, representing peace.
The 1890-CC Morgan Silver Dollar is notable for its relatively modest mintage of 2,309,041 pieces during a period when the Carson City Mint was approaching its final years of operation. This issue presents an interesting dichotomy for collectors: while the mintage figures suggest reasonable availability, the 1890-CC is considerably scarcer in high-grade uncirculated condition than its production numbers would indicate. Unlike some other Carson City dates that benefited from long-term Treasury storage, fewer 1890-CC dollars remained preserved in government vaults, resulting in a surviving population that tends toward circulated grades.
These 1890-CC Morgan Silver Dollar Coins are in VF30 condition, landing near the top of the Very Fine scale (20-35). The coin has light wear overall with all of its general details still visible, such as the individual letters in the legends.
