History
The Carson City Mint was established in 1870 to take advantage of the nearby silver mines discovered in Nevada. It played a significant role in the production of Morgan Dollars from 1878 until 1885. After a break in production from 1886 to 1888, the mint resumed striking Morgan Dollars from 1889 to 1893 before its permanent closure.
