1893-CC NGC graded Unc Details. Improperly cleaned. Softly struck in the center of both sides. Nice semi-reflective fields. After the Southern gold mints were shuttered for the duration of the American Civil War which broke out in 1861, another Mint began operations in 1870, this one in a dusty town in the Nevada desert, Carson City. Like Charlotte and Dahlonega before it, Carson had a tumultuous history, with production in fits and starts. It did not take anything like the Civil War to shut down the Carson City Mint, however; instead, an administrative decision by President Grover Cleveland demoted Carson City to an Assay Office in 1893, 23 years after production started. In its final year of existence as a mint, Carson City struck both gold coins and Silver Dollars (PCGS # 7222) . Estimated Value $2,000 - 2,100. Categories: Morgan Dollars
