A CAC sticker verifies the accuracy of the grade.

Obverse

The obverse of the 1879-S Silver Morgan Dollar carries George T. Morgans well-known Liberty design. Shown in left-profile, Liberty wears a Phrygian cap and is crowned with both a laurel wreath and a coronet, representing freedom and honor.

Reverse

For the reverse, Morgans heraldic eagle design is featured. The eagle spreads its wings wide while grasping arrows and an olive branch, a simple symbol of Americas defense and peace goals.

History

In 1879, silver mining in the United States reached new levels. The Comstock Lode in Nevada continued its output, while major strikes in Colorados Leadville district increased production dramatically. Improved mining technology and new railroads made silver extraction faster and cheaper, fueling ongoing debates about silvers role in the nations money supply.
