Historical Significance
The Liberty Gold Eagle series, minted from 1838 to 1907, represents a pivotal period in American history and economic development. The Carson City Mint, operational from 1870 to 1893, played a crucial role in processing silver from the Comstock Lode. Coins from this mint, identifiable by the "CC" mint mark, are particularly sought after due to their lower mintages and association with the Wild West. This 1881-CC example offers a glimpse into this exciting chapter of American history.
