These 1897 Morgan Silver Dollar Coins are available in Brilliant Uncirculated condition. Each coin is shipped in a protective flip, and bulk purchases of 20 coins are housed in acrylic tubes if tubes are in stock. The series is named after George T. Morgan, who created this iconic design during his time as Assistant Engraver at the U.S. Mint.

Obverse

The obverse of 1897 Morgan Dollar Coins depicts Liberty in a left-profile portrait. This timeless design by George T. Morgan, introduced in 1878, shows Liberty wearing a Phrygian cap adorned with a coronet crown and laurel wreath. The design is completed by 13 stars that honor the original American Colonies.

Reverse

The reverse of the 1897 Morgan Silver Dollar includes the heraldic eagle, another design by Morgan. The bald eagle is shown in a strong, front-facing pose with its wings spread wide, clutching arrows in one talon and an olive branch in the other, symbolizing war and peace.

History

In 1897, Morgan Dollars were minted at three U.S. Mint facilities: Philadelphia, New Orleans, and San Francisco. Philadelphia produced the fewest coins that year, with a mintage of just 2.822 million coins.
