Inscriptions on the reverse face read UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, IN GOD WE TRUST, ONE DOLLAR. You will also see the Carson City mintmark on the reverse.

History

The Carson City Mint was designed by architect Alfred B. Mullett and consisted of an impressive Renaissance Revival sandstone structure. In 1870, a Seated Liberty Dollar became the first coin struck at Carson City. To designate this fact, that coin and all others produced there received a CC mintmark just below the heraldic eagle on the reverse field. Minting operations ceased at Carson City in 1893, and by 1899 the mint formally closed its doors. Today, the structure still stands and is home to the Nevada State Museum.
