1921 was a transition year for US silver dollars, with production resuming after a 17-year hiatus and the US Mint reviving the Morgan Dollar for one final strike. Later in the year, a new silver dollar design would debut, but not before millions of fresh Morgan Dollars were struck, including first-ever Denver Mint issues. This 1921-D Morgan Dollar captures the essence of late-era Morgan Dollars with its robust relief and precision detail in the strike. Now, the 1921 Morgan Silver Dollar in MS66 condition is available online at JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
This 1921-D Morgan Silver Dollar is in Mint State 66 condition. The average MS66 coin has an above-average luster with several small contact marks, some of which may be in the primary focal fields. This vintage Morgan Dollar has frosted devices with a brilliant background field and a vibrant cartwheel luster. The silver’s subtle toning delivers a golden vibrance to the peripheries and a soft warmth to the luster of the silver fields.
The obverse of the 1921-D Morgan Dollar Coin features George T. Morgan’s portrait of Lady Liberty in left-profile. She wears a Phrygian cap, as well as a coronet crown and a laurel wreath atop her head. Thirteen stars form a ring around the image.
On the reverse of 1921-D Morgan Silver Dollars, Morgan’s heraldic eagle design appears. The eagle faces forward with its wings extended, clutching the arrows of war in one claw and the olive branch of peace in the other.
The United States Mint produced Morgan Silver Dollars each year from 1878 through 1904, halting the program after the 1904 issue. In 1918, Congress enacted the Pittman Act, which authorized the melting of existing Morgan Dollars and permitted the resumption of silver dollar production. The Morgan design returned for a final release in 1921, during which time the Mint held an artistic competition to select a new design for the nation’s silver dollar.
