[QUOTE="CamaroDMD, post: 407948, member: 5233"]Since I started collection coins about 10 years ago, Morgan Dollars have always been my favorite. Back when I first started, I had purchased a couple Morgan's, but I really wanted a Carson City Morgan. That seemed like the big coin to get. One day, the dealer I visited had a super cheap (basically cull) CC Morgan and I picked it up for a dollar or so over melt (back when melt was $7 or $8, I probably paid $10 or less for this coin). Anyway, I thought you guys would get a kick out of my first CC Morgan. I picked it up when I was about 12 or so and its an 1890-CC. It still holds a special place in my collection even though it's in such a bad state and it's a pretty common Carson City. Anyway, enjoy: [IMG]http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b97/RichieB16/1890-CCMorganDollarsmall.jpg[/IMG] I am curious if you guys think this coin would hold ANY premium over melt value because it is a Carson City coin? Also, I would later on get a handful more Carson City Morgan's, but this was my first. All of mine are pretty low grade...but I do have 1878-CC, 1880-CC, 1883-CC, and 1893-CC to go with this 1890-CC.[/QUOTE]
