It was the mint mark of the Carson City mint.
The Carson City mint operated only from 1870 to 1893. It was set up to be near major gold and silver mines. The mint mark is unusual because it's the only 2-letter mark used on any US Coins, and it has a certain romance about it because of its location and being part of the Old West.
