The 1881-CC Morgan Dollar is one of the most popular and sought-after issues in the Morgan Dollar series, struck at the historic Carson City Mint. Coins bearing the “CC” mintmark are highly prized for their limited mintage and strong connection to the American Old West.
This example has been certified MS-65 by NGC, placing it in Gem Mint State condition with excellent eye appeal, strong cartwheel luster, and minimal contact marks.
The obverse features Lady Liberty with sharp hair detail and vibrant luster across the surfaces. The reverse showcases a bold eagle with crisp feather definition and a clear “CC” mintmark, reflecting the quality of Carson City Mint production.
Gem-grade Carson City Morgan Dollars are especially desirable due to their combination of rarity and condition. This 1881-CC MS-65 example offers an excellent blend of historical significance, premium quality, and strong collector demand—making it a standout addition to any collection or investment portfolio.
