The Morgan Dollar Silver Coin was issued a total of 28 times between 1878 and 1921, with continuous production from 1878 to 1904 and a one-off release in 1921 before the introduction of the Peace Dollar. While five branch mints of the United States Mint issued these coins, arguably the most popular with many collectors are those coins from the Carson City Mint. Right now, you can buy 1890-CC Morgan Dollar Silver Coins online from Provident Metals in certified condition.

Obverse
Lady Liberty features on the obverse of 1890-CC Morgan Dollar Coins. This left-profile portrait of Liberty was created in 1878 and features a Phrygian cap on her head with a laurel wreath and coronet crown as well. Inscriptions on this side read E PLURIBUS UNUM, LIBERTY on the coronet, and 1890. There are also 13 stars on this side of the coin.
Reverse
For the reverse design of the 1890-CC Morgan Dollar Silver Coin, the mint features the heraldic eagle of the United States. Also designed by George T. Morgan, this image shows the eagle clutching the arrows of war and the olive branch of peace in its talons with an oak-and-laurel wreath beneath its figure. Inscriptions on this side include UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, IN GOD WE TRUST, ONE DOLLAR, and the CC mint mark of the Carson City Mint.
History
The Carson City Mint was purpose-built by the US Mint to use local sources of silver discovered in the American west to support silver coining. The 1890 release of Morgan Dollars from Carson City Mint was the highest of any date mark from the mint with a total of 2,309,041 coins. However, when it comes to the GSA inventory discovered in the 1960s, the 1890 release had one of the lowest inventories at just 3,949 coins.
