Morgan Silver Dollars (1878-1904) and (1921)BU, XF, Cir, Cull, and MS graded condition (Random Year)
Few coins in American history are more popular than the Morgan Silver Dollar. After a five-year hiatus in the production of silver dollar coins in the US, this inspiring design from a British citizen new to life in the US went on to become one of the most collectible and rare coins in American history.
Coin Highlights:
• Total Mintage of 570,247,299 coins from 1878 to 1904 for circulation!
• Face value: of $1 (USD) is fully backed by the US government.
• Obverse: Left facing profile of Liberty. Anna Willess Williams, a teacher and philosophical writer, modeled for this design of Lady Liberty by George T. Morgan.
• Reverse: Features a bald eagle clutching an olive branch in one talon and a bundle of arrows in the other. Surrounding the eagle is "United States of America," "One Dollar" and "In God We Trust."
Prior to 1873, Americans could bring in silver stores to the Treasury Department to be coined into US silver dollars. The Coinage Act of 1873 not only brought an end to the free coining of silver in the US, but also halted the production of American silver dollars. This resulted in the end of the use of the Seated Liberty Dollar design.
With the passage of the Bland-Allison Act following 1873, silver mining interests failed to restore free silver coins in the US but did manage to force the Treasury to commit to purchasing a set amount of silver each year to coin into dollars on a monthly basis. Rather than revive the Seated Liberty Dollar design, George T. Morgan was tasked with creating what would become known as the Morgan Silver Dollar.
On the obverse is the image of Lady Liberty in left-profile relief. The Morgan Silver Dollar was the first American coin to depict Liberty as an American woman, rather than using the previous Greek style to depict Liberty. Engravings on this face included the saying “E Pluribus Unum,” 13 stars, and the year of issue.
The reverse of all Morgan Silver Dollar coins featured the image of the American bald eagle with its wings spread wide and clutching arrows and an olive branch in its talons. Engravings on this face included the nation of issue, the national motto, and the coin’s face value.
