1881-CC Morgan Silver Dollar NGC MS-66

Acquire one of the most desirable Carson City Morgan Dollars with this 1881-CC Morgan Silver Dollar certified MS-66 by NGC. Combining an exceptionally low original mintage with an outstanding Gem Mint State grade, this Carson City issue represents one of the premier collector coins in the Morgan Dollar series.

The Carson City Mint operated from 1870 through 1893, striking coins using silver sourced from Nevada's legendary Comstock Lode. Today, coins bearing the coveted CC mint mark remain among the most sought-after issues in American numismatics due to their historic connection to the American West, limited mintages, and enduring collector demand.

The 1881-CC Morgan Dollar had an original mintage of only 296,000 coins, making it one of the lowest-mintage regular Carson City Morgan Dollars. While many examples were preserved in Treasury storage, Gem-quality certified coins remain highly desirable, particularly those graded MS-66, where population levels decline substantially compared to lower Mint State grades.
