Product Details

Step into the captivating world of numismatics with a remarkable piece of American history, the 1881-CC Morgan Silver Dollar. Renowned for its intricate beauty and historic significance, this silver dollar exemplifies both the artistry and the economic spirit of late 19th-century America. Struck at the Carson City Mint, indicated by the distinctive 'CC' mint mark, this piece holds the allure of the Wild West era intertwined with the prestige of the U.S. Mint.

The Morgan Silver Dollar series, designed by the talented engraver George T. Morgan, features a portrait of Liberty with flowing hair adorned with a headband and Phrygian cap, symbolizing freedom. Copper and silver, mined directly from the Comstock Lode, lend the coin its intrinsic value and stunning appearance. On the reverse, a majestic eagle with outstretched wings clutches olive branches and arrows, embodying peace and strength. This specific coin, part of the General Services Administration's historic inventory, is presented in its original box and accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity, underscoring its genuine and untouched state.

Collectors and investors alike value the 1881-CC Morgan Dollar for its historical context, as it represents a time when silver and the Nevada mining boom contributed significantly to the U.S. economy. The Carson City Mint, operating from 1870 to 1893, produced coins that have become particularly coveted due to their relatively low mintages and historical allure. Today, these silver dollars remain popular as both investment bullion and collectible coins, offering a tangible link to America’s past and a sound addition to a diverse investment portfolio.

The Morgan Dollar shines not only in its detailed artistry but also in its metal content. Composed of .900 fine silver, this bullion piece is a testament to the durability and investment potential of precious metals. Its brilliant uncirculated condition ensures it retains both aesthetic and market value, appealing to those interested in preserving history while accumulating tangible assets.

This particular silver dollar's presentation in its original General Services Administration packaging, along with a Certificate of Authenticity, adds another layer of appeal, protecting its condition and providing historical verification. Such features enhance its desirability for collectors who emphasize authenticity and pristine condition.
