All Morgan dollar dates

1892-CC Morgan Dollar

Semi-key

A sought-after Carson City date, scarcer in mint state than the earlier CC issues because far less of it survived in government storage.

Mintage rank
25 of 96

Rank 1 is the lowest business-strike mintage in the series. Mintage is what the Mint produced, not what survives: some 270 million silver dollars were melted under the Pittman Act of 1918 without the dates being recorded, and several issues sat in Treasury vaults for decades before release.

Reading the figure

Among the 13 Carson City issues in the series it is the 10th smallest. Of the 6,332,000 struck across all mints in 1892, this issue accounts for 21%. New Orleans struck 2 times as many that year. The 1892 split ran New Orleans 2,744,000, Carson City 1,352,000, San Francisco 1,200,000 and Philadelphia 1,036,000. The series median is 5,000,000, so fewer than half as many of these were struck as a typical date. Series-wide output fell that year: 6,332,000 against 23,562,085 in 1891.

Every sentence above is computed from the mintage table on this page, not asserted separately.

Scarcity tier

Semi-key

Assigned from reported mintage alone: under 750,000 is a key date, under 2,500,000 is a semi-key.

This is a reproducible label derived from the mintage column, not a market valuation and not a Coin Curator price opinion. The same thresholds apply to every series on this site. Several dates are far harder or far easier to obtain than their mintage implies; where that is true, it is stated above.

How to read these

  • The median is the middle sale after removing outliers. The range is every sale kept, including the outliers, so you can see how wide the market actually is.
  • Grade drives most of the difference. A band with three sales tells you far less than a band with thirty, and the count is shown so you can weigh it.
  • Sales of coins in “Details”, “Genuine” or cleaned holders are excluded, as are proofs, replicas, lots, and mounted coins. Those sell at prices that would not describe the coin on this page.
  • So is any sale priced below what this same date fetches in a lower grade, which is impossible for a real coin and is how a counterfeit in a convincing holder gives itself away.

What to check before buying

Nothing about this date calls for a check beyond the ones that apply to any certified coin.

And for any certified coin

Verify the certification number on the grading service’s own lookup rather than from a photograph of the label, match the listing images to the certification record including grade and any variety attribution, look for cleaning, compare the mintmark against published photographs of the genuine issue, and read the return policy before buying. The grading guide covers each of these in full.
