The Morgan Silver Dollar is a cherished piece of U.S. numismatic history. First issued in 1878, these coins were struck annually until 1904 and made one final appearance in 1921. Right now, 1898 Morgan Dollar Silver Coins are available online at Provident Metals.
Highlights:
These 1898 Morgan Dollar Silver Coins are available in Brilliant Uncirculated condition. Single coins are packaged in plastic flips, while quantities of 20 come in acrylic tubes. The Morgan Dollar is named after its designer, George T. Morgan, who began working at the US Mint in 1878 as an Assistant Engraver.
Obverse
The obverse of the 1898 Morgan Dollar Coin showcases Lady Liberty in a left-facing portrait. Liberty wears a Phrygian cap, a coronet crown inscribed with Liberty, and a laurel wreath. Thirteen stars symbolizing the original Colonies surround her image. Inscriptions read LIBERTY, E PLURIBUS UNUM, and 1898.
Reverse
On the reverse of the 1898 Morgan Dollar Silver Coin is the heraldic eagle design by George T. Morgan. The bald eagle is shown with wings outstretched, clutching arrows and an olive branch to represent strength and peace. The inscriptions here read UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, IN GOD WE TRUST, and ONE DOLLAR.
History
The Morgan Dollar series spanned 28 issue dates, including a 17-year pause in production between 1904 and 1921. In 1898, Philadelphia struck 5.884 million coins, contributing to over 15 million Morgan Silver Dollars produced across three mints that year. The New Orleans and San Francisco Mints accounted for the rest of the year’s output, further boosting its availability.
