When more than $75,000 in gold was found to be missing from the Carson City Mint, the facility was converted to an assay office in 1895 and their unused dies were returned to Philadelphia. Then, by the end of the 1890s, demand for Morgan dollars increased as the country began recovering from a recession. With the Philadelphia Mint busy producing small-denomination silver coins and gold pieces, New Orleans went in to overtime striking silver dollars. Soon they needed more dies – so a few leftover Carson City dies hastily had their "CC" mint mark overstamped with the "O" mint mark of New Orleans.
