1893-CC Liberty Eagle NGC AU58

Sirhc

Scarce

The Carson City Mint struck a small production of 14,000 Liberty eagles in 1893, the last year of coinage operations at the famous Western facility. The coins were released into circulation and few high-quality examples were saved for numismatic purposes. As might be expected, the 1893-CC is an elusive issue in all grades today, with most examples seen in the VF-XF grade range. AU58 examples are scarce and Mint State specimens are very rare.

The NGC population is 59 with 21 graded higher.

Listed at $16,800 in the CDN CPG and $20,000 in the NGC price guide.

Offered at $14,690

1889-CC Morgan Dollar NGC MS63 DPL

Sirhc

After a four-year hiatus, the Carson City Mint was authorized to resume coinage in July 1889, although operations did not commence until October due to repairs that needed to be performed on the building and machinery. Morgan dollar production in the final quarter of the year reached 350,000 coins. Unlike earlier silver dollar issues from this mint that were largely dumped into long-term storage and forgotten, the 1889-CC seems to have been released — at least in part — into circulation. Worn coins are plentiful today, and Mint State pieces are scarce by comparison.
The 1889-CC has long been the condition key of the Carson City Morgans, but its status as one of the key dates of the entire series was established permanently in the 1970s, when no large quantities of this date emerged from the GSA sales. A single GSA coin, sold in the Mixed CC offerings, stood as a glaring reminder of just how challenging high-grade 1889-CC Morgans would continue to be.

This survivor displays more pronounced Cameo contrast on its reverse than its obverse, but the latter is still more heavily frosted than is apparent in our image. The NGC population is 30 with 13 graded higher, none better than MS64. Listed at $75,000 in the CDN CPG and $71,500 in the NGC price guide.

1880-CC Morgan Dollar NGC MS67

Sirhc

Superb, Super Frosty

Demand for high-grade Carson City material is strong across all denominations and series, but Morgan dollars in particular seem to capture the hearts and mind of collectors. Part of what makes high-end Nevada mint Morgans so interesting are the numerous forces that work to influence their availability and collectability. For example, many issues, like the 1880-CC, have low mintages. But they were often also widely held in storage through the mid-20th century. Essentially, relatively few coins were made, a high proportion of them survive, but even that sizeable number is insufficient to fully satisfy demand. This particular example exhibits frosty surfaces and a wonderful overall appearance. The NGC population is 35 with 4 higher.

1874-CC Trade Dollar PCGS MS64

Sirhc

A Virtually White Blazer

Nearly the entire mintage of 1.3 million 1874-CC Trade dollars was exported to East Asia, where the coins could still be found in circulation as recently as the 1940s. This is the most commonly encountered issue with chop marks, yet it is one of the most elusive dates in high Mint State grades. Near-Gems are rare and Gems are extremely rare, as few coins were saved for numismatic purposes. Considerably more lustrous and flashier when viewed in hand. Only eight have been graded higher at PCGS, half of those being MS64+ representatives.
