Struck in 90% silver, this 1891 Morgan dollar represents a fascinating era of American coinage. Produced at the historic New Orleans Mint, the coin contains 0.7734 troy ounces of precious metal. A total of 7,957,529 of these silver dollars were minted in 1891, each bearing the distinctive 'O' mint mark on the reverse side to denote its Southern origin.
