The United States Mint issued the Morgan Dollar Silver coins in the 19^th and early 20^th centuries with authorization through the Bland-Allison Act of 1878 and the Sherman Silver Purchase Act of 1890. These acts required the US Treasury to purchase silver on a monthly basis, with the former act setting a monetary volume of silver to be purchased and the latter act setting a physical weight in Troy oz for the Treasury to purchase. In the latter act, the US Mint was eventually required to continue coining Morgan Dollars until the silver the Treasury had purchased was depleted.
