Design and Historical Significance

The design draws inspiration from the legendary Morgan Silver Dollar, which was originally minted from 1878 to 1904 and saw a brief revival in 1921. Named after George T. Morgan, who designed it, this coin remains a beloved staple among American silver coins.

• Obverse: Features Liberty’s profile wearing a Phrygian cap, with “Liberty” inscribed on her hair band, framed by “E Pluribus Unum,” the issue date, and thirteen stars symbolizing the original colonies.
• Reverse: Displays a bald eagle clutching an olive branch and arrows, surrounded by “United States of America,” “One Dollar,” and “In God We Trust.”
• Edge: Reeded for that classic touch.

Minting Details and Specifications

The Morgan Dollars were historically minted in several locations, which collectors always keep an eye on:

• Carson City (CC)

This modern medal carries that same minting legacy, commemorating the rich history of these legendary coins in a contemporary format.
