Obverse
The obverse side of the 1884 Morgan Dollar Coin features a lovely left-profile relief of Lady Liberty. It is believed that Anna Willes Williams served as the model for this depiction. Liberty is depicted wearing a Phrygian cap, a laurel wreath, and a coronet crown, surrounded by 13 stars.
Reverse
On the reverse side, the 1884 Morgan Silver Dollar showcases the heraldic eagle, which does not include a national shield in Morgans design. The eagle is portrayed in a front-facing relief, wings spread, grasping both arrows, symbolizing war, and an olive branch, representing peace.
