Obverse
The obverse of the 1890 Morgan Dollar Coin features a detailed portrait of Lady Liberty. She is shown in left-profile relief wearing a Phrygian cap, a symbol of freedom, along with a coronet crown and a laurel wreath. Inscriptions include E PLURIBUS UNUM, LIBERTY, and 1890.
Reverse
The reverse of 1890 Morgan Dollar Silver Coins showcases a powerful heraldic eagle, its wings fully spread. The eagle is depicted clutching arrows in one talon, symbolizing strength, and an olive branch in the other, representing peace. George T. Morgans design is distinctive for omitting a national shield. Inscriptions read UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, IN GOD WE TRUST, and ONE DOLLAR.
History
In 1890, the United States was a country of rapid change and modernization. Industrial growth surged under titans like Andrew Carnegie, while labor disputes highlighted workers struggles in an evolving economy. Meanwhile, immigration thrived as newcomers entered through Ellis Island, shaping the cultural landscape. Overseas, the world saw technological progress with the launch of the first electric subway system in London.
