1878-1904 Morgan Silver Dollar BU (Cleaned, Random Year)
The Morgan Silver Dollar stands as one of the most famous coins in American history, originally minted from 1878 to 1904, with a brief final appearance in 1921. Composed of 0.7734 ounces of pure silver, this coin is celebrated for introducing a distinctly American aesthetic to United States currency. On the obverse side, a left-facing profile of Lady Liberty is depicted. George T. Morgan designed this portrait using Anna Willess Williams as his model, marking a departure from traditional European-style depictions of Liberty. Her cap is decorated with native American agricultural elements, specifically wheat and cotton. The word LIBERTY is inscribed on her crown. The reverse side showcases a bald eagle designed with realistic proportions. The national bird is shown clutching an olive branch to represent peace, alongside a bundle of arrows to show a preparedness for defense. Surrounding the eagle are the inscriptions UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, ONE DOLLAR, and the motto In God We Trust.
