Product Description
Merely 2% of Morgan silver dollars were struck at the isolated Carson City Mint in Nevada, situated near the Comstock Lode. Of the first-date 1878 Morgan dollar issues, the CC is the most elusive today in our nicely detailed Very Fine quality or higher grades. It was a day's pay for a cowboy on the range. Most were held in reserve and the overwhelming majority lost in U.S. Treasury silver melts of the 20th century.
