Obverse

Reverse

Flipping the coin to its reverse side, you will discover the resplendent heraldic eagle of the United States, also designed by George T. Morgan. The eagle is presented in front-facing relief, with its wings outstretched, holding the arrows of war and the olive branch of peace in its talons.

History

During the 1880s, the Morgan Dollar Series experienced its most productive period of coin production. The Philadelphia Mint was responsible for minting over 152 million coins throughout the decade. Among these, the highest mintages were achieved by the 1889, 1887, and 1886 coins, in that order.
