During the early years of the Morgan Silver Dollar’s introduction, the United States Mint utilized four of its branch locations to mint coins for circulation across the nation. These were the Philadelphia, New Orleans, Carson City, and San Francisco Mints. In 1878, the first Morgan Dollars were known as 8TF items, referring the eight tail feathers on the heraldic eagle. These coins are some of the first 7TF coins, with seven tail feathers instead. Now, 1878 7TF Morgan Silver Dollar Coins are available online from JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
The obverse of 1878 7TF Morgan Silver Dollars displays George T. Morgan’s famed portrait of Liberty. She is shown in left-profile relief, adorned with a Phrygian cap, a laurel wreath, and a coronet crown inscribed with “Liberty,” with 13 stars encircling the design to represent the original states.
For the reverse design of 1878 7TF Morgan Dollar Coins, Morgan depicted a bold heraldic eagle. This symbol features a bald eagle with wings outstretched, holding arrows in one claw to represent strength and readiness for conflict, while grasping an olive branch in the other to symbolize peace.
Production volume for Morgan Dollars fluctuated dramatically in response to legislative changes over time, with the Sherman Silver Purchase Act of 1890 briefly increasing output before its repeal in 1893 reduced mintage. The Morgan dollar’s production history includes notable rarities like the 1889-CC and 1893-S issues, whose scarcity resulted from the relatively small outputs of certain mints during particular years.
These 1878 7TF Morgan Silver Dollar Coins are Mint State 63 specimens. Coins in this condition showcase a slightly impaired mint luster with numerous small contact marks and a few scattered heavy marks possible. Small hairlines may also be visible without magnification. After issuing a small number, under 750,000 coins in total, of 8TF specimens, the US Mint altered the reverse design to the 7TF issue and ramped up production in the first year of the Morgan Dollar Series.
