1882-CC Morgan Silver Dollar NGC MS-65 CAC

The 1882-CC Morgan Silver Dollar represents one of the most collectible issues from the Carson City Mint, produced during the facility's prime silver dollar output years. Carson City operated from 1870 to 1893, and its limited production runs compared to Philadelphia and San Francisco have made CC-mintmarked Morgans consistently desirable among series collectors. This example has been certified MS-65 by NGC and approved by CAC, confirming its quality within the assigned grade.

The obverse displays George T. Morgan's iconic Liberty head portrait facing left, wearing a Phrygian cap adorned with wheat and cotton. The hair detail shows strong definition throughout the flowing tresses, and the legends E PLURIBUS UNUM and LIBERTY are sharply rendered. The reverse features the heraldic eagle with wings spread, clutching arrows and an olive branch, encircled by a laurel wreath. The CC mintmark is clearly visible below the wreath bow, and the motto IN GOD WE TRUST appears above the eagle with complete legibility.

Graded MS-65 by NGC with CAC approval, this coin exhibits bright, satiny luster across both surfaces with minimal contact marks for the grade. The fields display a clean, frosty appearance complementing the well-defined devices. Carson City Morgans remain a cornerstone of American numismatics, appealing to both type collectors and those assembling date-and-mintmark sets of the series. The coin pictured is the exact coin you will receive.
