1883-CC Morgan Silver Dollar $1 GSA PCGS MS 64
A celebrated survivor of one of the most remarkable U.S. Treasury discoveries, the 1883-CC Morgan Silver Dollar $1 GSA PCGS MS 64 combines Carson City rarity, historic significance, and impressive Mint State preservation. Struck at the famed Carson City Mint and certified PCGS MS 64, this silver dollar originates from the legendary General Services Administration (GSA) hoard, making it a highly desirable collectible among Morgan Dollar enthusiasts and collectors of classic American coinage.
The Carson City Mint, located in Nevada near the rich Comstock Lode silver deposits, produced coins from 1870 through 1893. Although its output was relatively limited compared to other U.S. Mint facilities, Carson City coins developed a lasting reputation for their connection to the American frontier and silver mining boom. Today, the distinctive "CC" mintmark remains one of the most sought-after designations in American numismatics.
The 1883-CC Morgan Dollar gained additional fame through its inclusion in the GSA Hoard. In the 1960s, the U.S. Treasury discovered millions of uncirculated Morgan Dollars stored in vaults, many of them Carson City issues that had never reached circulation. The government later sold these coins through a series of public auctions, preserving them in specially designed holders and creating one of the most famous chapters in numismatic history. These GSA coins remain highly collectible due to their documented provenance and exceptional preservation.
