The 1921 release of silver dollars in the United States marked the return of new silver dollars to circulation after a 17-year absence. It was also the last year to see the Morgan Dollar Coin struck and the first to witness the Peace Dollar Coin. The centennial of this occasion is celebrated by the Pobjoy Mint with a commemorative silver coin bearing both images of Liberty. Today, you can get 2021 Proof British Virgin Islands 100th Anniversary Morgan and Peace Dollar 5 oz Silver Coins online from Provident Metals.
Highlights:
The designs from the historic Morgan Dollar and Peace Dollar represent different eras of American coining. George T. Morgan created the Morgan Dollar effigy of Liberty in 1878 and it reflects the popular use of Greco-Roman themed effigies of Liberty wearing a coronet, Phrygian cap, and a laurel wreath. Anthony de Francisci created the Peace Dollar effigy of Liberty in 1921. It reflects a more modern vision of the female allegory and comes with a crown of tall spikes similar to that worn by the Statue of Liberty.
