HISTORY
Morgan dollar is one of the most storied coins in American history. Minted from 1878 to 1904 and once again in 1921, this substantial silver dollar is cherished by coin collectors and enthusiasts of American history alike. This special edition set includes Morgan dollars produced at 4different mints, including Philadelphia (no mintmark), Denver (D mintmark), New Orleans (O mintmark), and San Francisco (S mintmark). These coins were hand-selected by professional numismatists after screening thousands of coins for quality and eye-appeal. Named after the designer, U.S. Mint Assistant Engraver George T. Morgan, the obverse of the coin depicts Liberty as a youthful woman wearing a Phrygian cap, originally worn by emancipated slaves of ancient Rome, together with a headdress of cotton and wheat, staples of the U.S.economy. The reverse features an American bald eagle with outstretched wings, symbolic of the power of the U.S.government. The eagle bears in its great talons both an olive branch and 3 arrows, representing a nation of peace but one that is poised for war. The dollar was authorized by the passage of the Bland-Allison Act in1878, which required the Treasury to purchase an enormous 2 to 4 million dollars' worth of silver each month to be coined into dollars. Later, in1918, the passage of the Pittman Act ultimately led to the melting of over 270 million Morgan dollars held in treasury reserves. Today, the chosen few that remain are cherished specimens of a bygone era that serve to immortalize the memory of a young prosperous, and powerful United States of America
