Obverse

The obverse of the 1888 Morgan Dollars features a left-profile relief of Lady Liberty. Designed by George T. Morgan in 1878, it showcases Liberty wearing a Phrygian cap, a laurel wreath, and a coronet crown in her hair. The field includes a date mark and 13 stars.

Reverse

On the reverse of the 1888 Morgan Silver Dollar, you’ll find a magnificent portrayal of the heraldic eagle of the United States. This version of the heraldic eagle, also created by Morgan, showcases the American bald eagle in a front-facing pose. The eagle spreads its wings and clutches both the arrows of war and the olive branch of peace.

History
