Carson City Morgan Dollars carry the most coveted mintmark in American silver, and the 1884-CC puts those two letters within reach in choice mint state. These are United States legal tender dollars struck at the Carson City Mint in Nevada from Comstock Lode silver, weighing 26.73 grams of .900 fine silver for an actual silver weight of .7734 troy oz. Each is certified Mint State 64 by PCGS or NGC. To fill orders promptly, this listing ships with either service; if you prefer one exclusively, let us know and we will accommodate it.

The obverse carries George T. Morgan's portrait of Liberty facing left, wearing a Phrygian cap with LIBERTY on the coronet and a wreath of cotton and wheat representing the agricultural South and West. E PLURIBUS UNUM arcs above, thirteen stars surround the portrait, and the 1884 date sits below. The reverse presents an eagle with wings outstretched, clutching arrows and an olive branch, framed by a laurel wreath, with UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and ONE DOLLAR around the rim, IN GOD WE TRUST above the eagle, and the CC mintmark beneath the wreath bow.

The 1884-CC owes its reputation to one of the great survival stories in American numismatics: roughly 84 percent of the 1,136,000 coins struck never circulated, sitting in Treasury vaults until the GSA sales of the 1970s released them. That is why collectors can own a genuine Carson City dollar with frosty, original mint luster rather than a worn survivor. Morgan Dollars remain the most widely collected U.S. silver series, Carson City issues sit at the top of that demand, and PCGS and NGC certification means these trade readily with dealers and collectors nationwide.
