A pristine, uncirculated 1884 Carson City Morgan silver dollar, valued at approximately $350, will be awarded to a lucky winner at the upcoming Carson City Mint Coin Show on August 16. The rare coin, generously donated by Northern Nevada Coin, is being raffled by the Friends of the Nevada State Museum, with all proceeds supporting the organization’s vital work.
Raffle tickets are available for $5 each at the Nevada State Museum admission desk. The Nevada State Museum is located at 600 N. Carson Street in Carson City.
The coin comes in a collector case and includes a numbered certificate detailing the significance of the Carson City Morgan dollar. The winner does not need to be present at the drawing to win.
