Post your CARSON CITY coins (Those who have and want)

Think I am going to sell my 82-84cc GSAs and get toned ones instead. Tired of the GSA common dates. So will be shopping after the holidays for CC toners.

Why not have both? I'm partial to DPL's too. It's easier to judge colors in-hand. Lot's of juiced photos around. I'm getting better at judging them from photos and have a few Morgan toners that I'm happy with as well.

 

Is how I collect Morgan's I collect the ccs brilliant and by date and everything else by toning I don't care what the date is as long as the color surface and eye appeal are good

 

Let's revive this one

 

Well I pretty much gave up on the morgans as I found something better to collect

 

That coin is killer!

 

Thanks I like that trade below even better and this one even more!

 

Sweet I have a GSA morgan 84cc in the SD box but I couldn't find any pictures of it.

 

I have something resembles that

 

unfortunately had a bath at some point..



The first year of Carson City Silver dollars. The silver did not come from the Comstock Lode, but from closer to Mono Lake (in California). They were carried in saddlebags from the CC mint to Reno for distribution.

 

Nice. That's interesting I never knew that! So hard to find a pre Morgan cc dollar problem free!

 

Yeah, the information about the silver source came from someone whose ancestor was a close friend of the CC mint superintendent. He still has one of the first 3 1870 CC dollars struck.. an engraved presentation piece.. that was given to his ancestor.

 

That's very cool provenance. I know I'd never heard that is great to learn something new!

 

Like that 76 I need one of those got the first 3 cc this one won't grade clean I'm sure retoned but look real close and is been scrubbed

 

Bill, your 73 and 74 cc Trade Dollars are superb. By that I mean perfect.

 

This 76-cc DDR had an old cleaning but retoned.

 

Your 76 looks just as good! I had the 73 for about 24 hours! I'm still loving it. Need a 78-cc tho

 

Nothing as sexy as those trades but I still like this one
