<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Vess1, post: 595905, member: 13650&quot;]In another thread today, I mentioned that coining operations officially ceased at the Carson City mint in 1899.&nbsp;&nbsp; And that in August of that year, they shipped out 22 tons worth of the last remaining CC silver dollars that were there.&nbsp;&nbsp; &#039;Some&#039; of which went to New Orleans.&nbsp;&nbsp; So we have the 1900 O/CC variety.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; Does anyone know what happened to these when they got there?&nbsp; Were they melted?&nbsp; Did they just get an &quot;O&quot; stamped over the CC mintmark?&nbsp;&nbsp; Which in that case, does that mean Carson City had already produced 1900 Morgans?&nbsp;&nbsp; Or was it that they simply used the Carson City dies for a while and had to put an O over the CC on the dies?&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; It says New Orleans minted 12,590,000 Morgans in 1900.&nbsp; Does anybody have any idea what the approximate population of O/CC&#039;s were made?&nbsp; They&#039;re just included in the overall mintage.&nbsp; I guess I&#039;m wondering how rare are they?</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; Here.&nbsp; If I had photoshop I&#039;d replace the bat with Conder.&nbsp;&nbsp; Where are you.&nbsp; We need you.&nbsp;&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f203/vessxpress1/coinalbum2/signal.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
