Gather ’Round. Here’s The Story Of The Spitting Eagle From Carson City!

To start, the “CC” mint mark on these Morgan Silver Dollars struck at the Carson City Mint, arguably makes them the most sought-after in the series because only 2% of the entire production was struck in Carson City. The mintage for these 1891-CC Morgans was a measly 1.618 million.

The obverse depicts Lady Liberty wearing the "LIBERTY" tiara and her hair in a loose style. Inscriptions include "E PLURIBUS UNUM" and the year of mintage.

The reverse features an eagle with its wings spread open, clutching a bundle of arrows and an olive branch in its talons. Inscriptions include "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," "IN GOD WE TRUST," and the denomination.

COIN HIGHLIGHTS:

• AMERICA’S MOST POPULAR COIN – The Morgan Silver Dollar — so named for its designer, U.S. Mint Assistant Engraver George T. Morgan — has stood the test of time. Struck from 1878-1904 and again in 1921, it was the coin of America’s “Wild West” and jingled in the coin purses of gamblers, gunfighters, soldiers and dance hall girls.
• UNIQUE “SPITTING EAGLE” VARIETY – This coin is a unique VAM3 variety called a “Spitting Eagle” variation featuring a reverse with a small die gouge in front of the eagle’s mouth on the coin’s surface that makes the eagle look like he’s spitting.
• CLASSIC DESIGNS – Morgan’s historic design depicts a profile of Lady Liberty on the obverse while the reverse features an eagle with outstretched wings. The model used for Liberty was Miss Anna Williams of Philadelphia, who Morgan declared to have the most perfect feminine profile he had ever seen.
• STRUCK IN GLEAMING AMERICAN SILVER – Morgan Silver Dollars were struck in 90% silver from the famous Comstock Lode and measure 38.1 mm in diameter.
• LEGAL TENDER SILVER DOLLAR – Morgans were $1 legal tender and struck during the heyday of America’s Wild West era where coins were overwhelmingly preferred over paper currency.
• HIGH-GRADE UNCIRCULATED CONDITION – Your coin was graded by the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC) in Select Uncirculated Mint State-62 (MS62) condition.
• SPECIAL GREEN LABEL – This coin will come in an acrylic holder with a green NGC label that assures that is an exceptional quality coin based on standards established by the Rare Coin Company of America (RARCOA).
• THE CASE OF THE DISAPPEARING MORGANS – While millions of Morgan Silver Dollars were struck from 1878 through 1921, massive silver meltings and the ravages of time have taken their toll. Today coin experts believe that only 15% of all Morgans ever struck remain in existence — and fewer still remain in Uncirculated Mint State-62 condition!
