<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cpm9ball, post: 1353820, member: 24633&quot;]Welcome to the neighborhood!</p><p><br /></p><p>Many of the CC Morgans never saw the light of day. Once they were struck, they were bagged &amp; stored in the Carson City Mint. Eventually, those bags were transferred to the Treasury Department for storage where they remained until the Treasury releases of the early 70&#039;s. There were two plastic cases used to house these Morgans in preparation for the sale. One had &quot;Uncirculated Silver Dollar&quot; beneath the coin, and the other had &quot;Silver Dollar&quot; beneath the coin. The difference being that any coin with tarnish (toning) or any coin that had come from circulation (some did) could not be placed in the &quot;Uncirculated&quot; case.</p><p><br /></p><p>Currently the only grading service that will certify these coins without removing them from the plastic case is NGC. All others (to my knowledge) remove the coins, encapsulate them in their own slab and attribute the coin as &quot;GSA Hoard&quot;.</p><p><br /></p><p>Chris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
