- THE CASE OF THE DISAPPEARING MORGAN – While millions of Morgan Coin were struck from 1878 through 1921, massive meltings and the ravages of time have taken their toll. Today coin experts believe that only 15% of all Morgan ever struck remain in existence.
Each of the Morgan Coin Coins offered by us in this product listing is available to you in Mint State 66 condition from either the PCGS or NGC. Coins in Mint State 66 condition are five grades below the perfect grade of 70 on the Sheldon numeric scale. A coin with an MS66 certification has minimal, but apparent, detracting marks or hairlines.
The Morgan Coin debuted in 1878 with a design from George T. Morgan. At the time of its introduction, the Morgan Coin represented a return to dollar coining in the United States after it was halted in 1873. The Bland-Allison Act of 1873 brought an end to the free coining of in the US at the United States Mint, and a subsequent stop to dollars altogether.
On the obverse of the Morgan Coin is the left-profile portrait of Liberty. This design of Liberty that was created by Morgan is said to reflect the figure of Anna Willess Williams, who sat through numerous sessions with Morgan to complete the portrait of Liberty. Included on this face is the year of issue and the word “Liberty.”
The reverse of all Morgan Coin coins includes a design of the bald eagle also created by Morgan. The eagle is similar to the heraldic eagle, but lacks the shield commonly used in that design. Included in this design of the eagle is a bird with wings spread wide as it clutches the arrows of war and the olive branch of peace.
