Obverse

The obverse of the Morgan Dollar Silver Coin is a beautiful and iconic design. The coin features a left-profile bust of Liberty, which was created in 1878 by George T. Morgan. Liberty’s figure is shown in left-profile relief, and she is wearing a Phrygian cap, a laurel wreath, and a coronet crown. Inscriptions read E PLURIBUS UNUM, LIBERTY, and 1886.

Reverse
