Touching the depths of history - What is the Morgan Dollar?
The Morgan Dollar is a silver coin representing the United States, issued from 1878 to 1904 and again in 1921. It is a historic coin symbolizing the prosperity and expansion of America from the late 19th century to the early 20th century. The design was created by George T. Morgan, an engraver at the United States Mint, and the coin is named after him.
Surface design (obverse)
The obverse of the coin features a female figure symbolizing Liberty. This beautiful woman, modeled after the real-life American woman Anna Willis Williams, embodies the ideal image of "freedom" of the time. The Latin words "E PLURIBUS UNUM" (out of many, one) are engraved on the obverse, surrounded by stars and the year "1881."
Back design (reverse)
The reverse features a bald eagle, a symbol of the United States, with its wings outstretched and clutching an arrow and olive branch. This symbolic composition represents the coexistence of power and peace. The words "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," "ONE DOLLAR," and "IN GOD WE TRUST" are engraved around the coin, reflecting the classic American coin tradition.
Foundry "S" - A symbol of San Francisco craftsmanship
This coin was produced at the San Francisco Mint, a prestigious mint on the West Coast of the United States, and features an "S" mint mark engraved on the bottom of the reverse. The San Francisco Mint is known for its outstanding minting techniques and beautiful finish, making it one of the most highly regarded Morgan dollars.
