Step into a captivating chapter of American history with an exquisite piece from the Carson City Mint, known for its production of some of the most coveted silver coins during the late 19th century. The 1891-CC Morgan Silver Dollar remains a treasured artifact among numismatic enthusiasts and investors alike, not merely for its silver content but for the unique story etched onto its surface. This particular specimen is presented in Brilliant Uncirculated condition, a testament to its preservation over the years, and comes complete in its original box with an official Certificate of Authenticity, enhancing its desirability and provenance.
The obverse of the coin features Lady Liberty, a design masterfully crafted by George T. Morgan. Her profile wears a Phrygian cap adorned with wheat and cotton, emblems of freedom and unity. The reverse showcases a muscular eagle with spread wings, clutching arrows and an olive branch, a juxtaposition of peace and preparedness, framed by a laurel wreath. This silver piece is not just a coin but a reflection of late 19th-century American ethos and craftsmanship.
Minted in Carson City, Nevada, the Morgan Silver Dollar holds a special place in the legacy of U.S. coinage. The "CC" mintmark denotes its origin at a mint known for producing limited runs of silver dollars between 1870 and 1893, adding exclusivity to this already elite numismatic item. With its .900 fine silver content, it attracts investors seeking tangible assets that are both historically significant and financially secure.
The Morgan Dollar series commenced in 1878, responding to the nation's monetary needs post-Civil War. As one of the last coin issues from the Carson City Mint, the 1891-CC marks the end of an era in U.S. minting, prized for both its heritage and silver quality. Such coins bolster investment portfolios and resonate deeply with collectors due to their scarcity and the stories they tell.
This Morgan Dollar is housed in its original GSA box, a feature that underscores its condition and pedigree. The Certificate of Authenticity validates its minting heritage, reassuring buyers of its origins and guaranteeing its value. Such packaging enhances its appeal as a distinguished addition to any collection or investment ensemble.
Beyond its monetary and metallic appeal, this coin serves as an investment in history. Its limited mintage and preservation in pristine condition, along with its presentation box and COA, makes it a standout in any numismatic collection.
