<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 1669493, member: 66&quot;]When the treasury stopped handing out silver dollars for silver certificates in 1964 they had roughly 3.2 million coins left on hand.&nbsp; Three million of these were Carson City dollars and the rest were mixed date/mint uncirculated dollars and some mixed circulated dollars.&nbsp; The GSA packaged these up for sale in the early 70&#039;s with sales starting in I think 1972.</p><p><br /></p><p>Anything that was obviously circulated (and for some reason a lot of the MS 1878-CC dollars) were put in flexible pliofilm packaging. (GSA 1)&nbsp; These GSA numbers refer the the holder variety numbers assigned in my book.</p><p><br /></p><p>Uncirculated coins from all the mints except Carson City were put in a hard plastic holder labeled United Stated Uncirculated Silver Dollar. (GSA 2)</p><p><br /></p><p>Carson City dollars that had toning or what they felt were excessive bagmarks were put in a hard plastic holder labeled Carson City Silver Dollar (GSA 3)</p><p><br /></p><p>Untoned Carson City dollars were in holders labeled Carson City Uncirculated Silver Dollar. (GSA 4)</p><p><br /></p><p>The 1882-O GSA listing you see in the price guide refers to an 1882-O dollar in a GSA 2 holder for MS grades or GSA 1 circulated grades.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
