The Legacy of the Morgan Silver Dollar
The Morgan Silver Dollar, minted from 1878 to 1904 and again in 1921, represents a pivotal era in American history. Its creation was mandated by the Bland-Allison Act, requiring the U.S. Treasury to purchase large quantities of silver. The "CC" mint mark signifies that this coin was produced at the Carson City Mint, a short-lived branch known for its lower mintage figures and, consequently, higher desirability amongst collectors. The 1879-CC is a key date in the Morgan series.
