1880/79-CC $1 Morgan Silver Dollar – PCGS MS66
Overdate Variety – Reverse of 1878 – Carson City Gem
A rare Carson City overdate in exceptional gem condition.
Copper State Coin and Bullion proudly offers this 1880/79-CC Morgan Silver Dollar, a scarce and desirable overdate variety featuring the Reverse of 1878. Graded an outstanding MS66 by PCGS, this coin comes from one of the most storied mints in American numismatic history—Carson City—and stands as one of the finest examples of this complex and historically important issue.
Key Features:
PCGS MS66 – A true Gem Mint State example with frosty luster, sharp detail, and superior eye appeal.
Overdate Variety (1880/79) – A dramatic and well-known overdate, visible in the last two digits of the date, making it a highly collectible variety.
Reverse of 1878 – Identified by a flat eagle breast and parallel top arrow feather—an early reverse style used in select 1879–1880 issues.
Carson City Mint (CC Mintmark) – Revered among collectors for its low mintages and ties to the American frontier.
Low Population in MS66 – Very few certified at this level, making it a condition rarity.
Why This Coin Stands Out:
Combining the scarce overdate, the Reverse of 1878, and the prestigious Carson City mintmark, this coin checks every box for rarity, eye appeal, and historical significance. In MS66, it’s not only a standout variety—it’s a registry-quality trophy.
Secure this elite Carson City variety today—available now from Copper State Coin and Bullion.

‘’I had gone to a couple of other places and they weren’t the nicest people and were trying to rip me off. The people at copper state were very knowledgeable and kind. They taught me a lot along the way too. Mike and Ivy were big helps in my situation. The place is also very organized, clean and they were professional!! I recommend you go here! I will be back!’’

‘’Very nice and pleasant experience. Mike, the owner took time to show me some very cool things!! He also spent time to educate me about things I wanted to know and answered all my silly questions too! (And there were a LOT of them!!) I am really going to enjoy this shop and look forward to returning again and again. Mike is fair, honest, respectful, and kind. What more could you ask for?’’

‘’First time visit to the shop was great! All were fun to talk with friendly to work with and outstanding to do business with. I was looking for some specific items. They went above and beyond to double check inventory not under glass. Boy, did they make my day. Not only did they find, it but they gave me the best deal in town. I will be back again! Thank you Mike! Copper State is a new spot for me now.’’

‘’Found a couple of the 2009 Formative Years” I have been looking for. Came to Copperstate Coins responding to an ad not knowing they were a coin dealer. Met with Ivy to pick up my rolls. All in the store were extremely polite not pushy helpful and I left with more than I came in for. Without a doubt greatest place to go if you’re just getting into the hobby, which I am, I will be a frequent customer. Thank you!!’’
