1895-S Morgan Dollar VG
The 1895-S Morgan silver dollar represents a fascinating moment in late nineteenth-century American coinage. Struck at the San Francisco Mint, this issue is notable for its remarkably low production run of just 400,000 pieces. Crafted from 0.900 fine silver, the coin contains 0.7734 troy ounces of precious metal. The obverse features a left-facing portrait of Liberty adorned with a Phrygian cap, her hair band inscribed with her name. Encircling her likeness are thirteen stars, the year of issue, and the Latin motto meaning "Out of many, one." This particular specimen is preserved in Very Good condition, showing honest wear from its time in circulation while retaining its essential design elements. On the reverse, a bald eagle stands with outspread wings, clutching an olive branch alongside a cluster of arrows. The national name, the face value of one dollar, and the traditional motto "In God We Trust" frame this classic symbol of American heritage.
