1883-CC Carson City Morgan Silver Dollar (Brilliant Uncirculated)
Includes Custom Nevada Acrylic Display Stand
Own an authentic piece of America’s Old West with this 1883 Carson City Morgan Silver Dollar, struck at the legendary Carson City Mint during the height of Nevada’s silver-mining boom. More than 140 years old, this historic silver dollar represents one of the most iconic eras in U.S. coinage and remains one of the most desirable mint-mark issues among collectors.
Featuring the coveted “CC” mint mark, this Morgan Silver Dollar was produced at a frontier mint closely tied to the famous Comstock Lode—one of the richest silver discoveries in American history. Carson City Morgans are prized not only for their silver content, but for their direct connection to the expansion of the American West.
This example is offered in Brilliant Uncirculated (BU) condition and is beautifully presented in a custom acrylic Nevada display stand, making it an exceptional addition to any collection or display.
The Legacy of the Carson City “CC” Morgan Dollar
The Carson City Mint operated for a relatively short period compared to other U.S. Mint facilities, striking fewer coins overall. As a result, Morgan Silver Dollars bearing the CC mint mark have become some of the most recognizable and sought-after coins in American numismatics.
The 1883-CC Morgan Silver Dollar had a relatively modest mintage compared to Philadelphia issues of the same year, further enhancing its collector appeal. Today, Carson City Morgans are widely regarded as symbols of Western heritage, frontier history, and tangible American legacy.
History of the Morgan Silver Dollar
The Morgan Silver Dollar was minted from 1878 to 1904, with a final issue in 1921. It was created during a period of intense political and economic debate surrounding silver mining and the U.S. monetary system.
Designed by George T. Morgan, the coin features a powerful portrait of Liberty on the obverse and a proud American eagle on the reverse. Its bold design, large size, and substantial silver content have made the Morgan Dollar one of the most collected and celebrated coins in U.S. history.
Brilliant Uncirculated Condition
Coins in Brilliant Uncirculated condition show no wear from circulation and retain strong original mint luster. While light bag marks may be present—as is normal for large silver dollars—the overall eye appeal remains sharp and impressive, closely resembling how the coin appeared when it left the mint over a century ago.
