United States Mint

History & provenance

America's classic silver dollar.

The 1891 issue is one chapter in the series. George T. Morgan’s silver dollar was struck from 1878 through 1904, then returned for one final mass-production year in 1921. The design pairs Morgan’s profile of Liberty with an eagle holding arrows and an olive branch, and the original circulating coin is 90 percent silver.

Mintmark, strike, surface preservation, and die variety can change rarity dramatically within a single date, so the year selector is a starting point rather than a complete Morgan Dollar attribution.

Collector reference only. Dies, finishes, packaging, and production varieties can differ between examples; independently authenticate high-value purchases.
