U.S. Morgan Silver Dollars
in
Brilliant Uncirculated condition

Morgan silver dollars are the most popular and widely collected of all U.S. silver coins. Minted between 1878 and 1904, and again in 1921, in Philadelphia, New Orleans, San Francisco, and Carson City, these classic silver coins served as the backbone of daily commerce, both nationally and internationally, for decades. Today Morgan dollars are avidly sought by collectors worldwide for their beautiful design and rich history. Investors love them for their high silver content, superb minting, and excellent leverage to the silver market. We love these true American classics as one of the most fascinating coins and best silver investments on the market today.

Named after designer James T. Morgan, the Morgan dollar is also known as the Liberty Head dollar because of the radiant, dignified profile of Miss Liberty featured on the obverse. The model who sat for this famous portrait, a school teacher named Anna W. Williams, gained international celebrity as “Miss Liberty.” The reverse of the Morgan dollar depicts the inspiring image of an American Eagle, standing tall with widespread wings, perched confidently upon the olive branch of peace and the arrows of military strength, signaling a new era of American strength and prosperity.

Although Morgan dollars were minted in large quantities from 1878 through 1904, when production ended because of a silver shortage, very few have survived until today. As result of the Pittman Act of 1918, nearly 270 million Morgan dollars were melted down into silver bars for export, causing some dates to become rare. Further melting occurred in the 1960s and 1980s when silver prices skyrocketed. Only about 17% of the total number of Morgan silver dollars minted have survived, and only a tiny fraction of those in Brilliant Uncirculated condition, making them genuinely scarce coins.

With over twenty years of experience in the metals markets, we’ve observed time and time again that when market conditions become bullish, the value of classic coinage almost always increases more than bullion alone. This is one of the reasons why classic U.S. Morgan silver dollars are such a terrific value today.

Morgan Dollars offer all the investment advantages of silver bullion, plus the added profit potential that comes with being scarce collectible coins. Unlike modern U.S. Silver Eagles, classic Morgan dollars were minted a century ago and are extremely limited in supply today. When the market heats up, classic silver coins like the Canadian silver dollar (1936-1967), U.S. Morgan silver dollars (1878-1904), and Peace silver dollars (1921-1935) can appreciate in multiples of their underlying silver value.

And the best part is, Morgan silver dollars are still inexpensive today!
