The obverse of the 1889-CC Morgan dollar features a left-facing portrait of Liberty wearing a Phrygian cap, adorned with cotton and wheat, symbolizing liberty and agricultural abundance. The reverse showcases an eagle with outstretched wings, holding arrows and an olive branch, symbolizing strength and peace.
The "CC" mintmark beneath the eagle indicates that the coin was minted at the Carson City Mint. The inscriptions include “E Pluribus Unum” on the obverse and “United States of America” and “In God We Trust” on the reverse.
