In 1921, the United States Mint experienced a transitional design year as it reintroduced the silver dollar. When production of the first new silver dollars started, the historic Morgan Dollar design was used. By December, the US Mint debuted the new Peace Dollar design. In 2021, these two designs celebrate a century since that transitional design year.

The Morgan Dollar Coin from the United States Mint was introduced in 1878. Its debut marked the end of a five-year hiatus in silver dollar coining in the United States. The Morgan design was produced by the US Mint annually through 1904 and halted when the Congressional mandate authorizing silver purchases to support it ended.

In 1921, the US Mint struck the first new silver dollars in the US in 17 years. The year started with the Morgan Dollar design and switched in late December to the new Peace Dollar design. This transitional year was a relative rarity in US coining and marked the end of one series and the beginning of another. The centennial of this moment is celebrated in the design of these coins.

Queen Elizabeth II features in right-profile relief on the obverse of 2021 5 oz Proof BVI 100^th Anniversary Morgan and Peace Dollar Silver Coins. This effigy of the Queen is unique to the Pobjoy Mint and depicts the Queen wearing the George IV State Diadem Crown.

Lady Liberty is shown in the reverse design of the 2021 5 oz Proof BVI Morgan and Peace Dollar Silver Coin in two different images. Both are left-profile portraits, with the Morgan Dollar design in the foreground and the Peace Dollar design in the background. A centennial date mark of 1921-2021 features on these coins as well.
