{{/presale}}The Morgan Silver Dollar, designed by George T. Morgan, was first minted by the United States in 1878. This silver coin circulated through major historical moments like the Reconstruction Era and the early 20th century. The coin was produced annually until 1904, with a one-year issue in 1921. BGASC is pleased to offer the 1885-O Morgan Silver Dollar Coin for your collection.
Highlights:
The 1885-O Morgan Silver Dollar Coins available from BGASC come in Brilliant Uncirculated (BU) condition, packaged in protective plastic flips for individual coins. Larger orders, if available, may ship in tubes of 20 coins. These coins are popular for collectors and silver enthusiasts alike due to their historical importance and precious metal value.
Obverse
The obverse side of the 1885-O Morgan Dollar showcases Lady Liberty in left-profile relief. Liberty is shown wearing a Phrygian cap, a laurel wreath, and a coronet inscribed with the word Liberty. The design, created by George T. Morgan, is said to be modeled after Anna Willes Williams, a teacher from Philadelphia. Surrounding Liberty are 13 stars symbolizing the original colonies.
Reverse
On the reverse of the 1885-O Morgan Silver Dollar, youll find a front-facing image of the American bald eagle with its wings spread wide. The eagle holds arrows in one talon and an olive branch in the other, symbolizing both war and peace. This design by George T. Morgan is unique in that it does not feature the typical national shield in front of the eagle.
History
In 1885, the United States Mint struck Morgan Silver Dollars at four different mints: Philadelphia, New Orleans, San Francisco, and Carson City. The New Orleans Mint contributed 9.185 million coins to the overall production, making it the second-highest mintage that year. The coins composition includes 90% silver and 10% copper, making it both historically significant and valuable for its silver content.
