after 22 years I finally dug a Morgan Dollar ~ and it is a key date! 1880 CC

[oddcoins]

I cut out of work early today to go detecting in downtown Eugene Oregon. I dug a pile of clad and a few wheat cents, but I also dug my silver coin #3 for the year ~ a 1964 Rosie dime . . . . and silver coin #4 for the year a 1880-CC Morgan Dollar!!! This is the first Morgan dollar I have ever dug! And, it is also the first Carson City mint coin I have ever dug! WOOHOO ~ TREASURE!!!

Congrats on the find!! I collect Morgan dollars and I can tell you this, a CC Morgan Dollar is very very very very... very (well you get the point) high on my bucket list. I doubt I would ever find one though. I would have to find at least 30 common Morgan dollars to find one CC and I doubt I will find a common Morgan. Where I am they never circulated much though. Anyways, Congrats! You are so lucky.

I'm guessing it would grade

Congrats!
Just for fun I posted a four of the 15 Morgan Dollars from my collection, nothing outstanding though.

I had a good run of morgan finds in one spot,it was only after further researching the spot that it made perfect sense,i have been striking out there as of late,to pull any CC out of the ground would be cool

Yeah I found an Eisenhower dollar on the sideline of a soccer field last year, I figured it to be a flip coin also.
