Named for George T. Morgan — the Assistant Engraver who designed it — the Morgan Silver Dollar is an indisputably classic coin. Originally issued between 1878 and 1904, it was much identified with the frontiers of the American West, where settlers and adventurers valued its large size and substantial silver content. Over subsequent years, many of these coins were lost to the wear and tear of circulation or melted down for their silver, and they became rarities sought-after on the collectors’ market. Surviving Morgans with an uncirculated “mint state” grade make for valuable investments, such as the 1886 Morgan Silver Dollar Coin currently available from JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
The 1886 Morgan Silver Dollar Coin is available to you in the kind of secure, tamper-proof plastic slab packaging pioneered by the third-party coin grading service PCGS, with a label to indicate its grade. PCGS is one of the world’s most trusted appraisers of rare coins, and certified this coin’s certified Mint State grade of 63, which defines it as having an average-quality strike and showing moderate marks and hairline scratches. Supplies are extremely limited: uncirculated Morgan dollars struck in 1886 at the Philadelphia Mint are some of the rarest specimens of this type of coin, with a survival estimate of only a few thousand pieces.
The coin’s obverse field features an effigy of Lady Liberty wearing a Phrygian “slave cap” that symbolizes freedom. She is accompanied by the lettering “E PLURIBUS UNUM” and “1886,” and thirteen decorative stars at the rim represent each of America’s founding states.
The reverse field is dominated by a heraldic eagle clutching a bundle of arrows and an olive branch. This is joined by the lettering “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “ONE DOLLAR,” and “IN GOD WE TRUST.”
