Highlights:
The United States Mint had issued the Morgan Dollar from 1878 to 1904, before the series was paused upon the expiration of its Congressional mandate. Silver dollars were not authorized again until 1918, with production resuming in 1921. From January to late December, the Morgan Dollar was issued for the final time. Starting on December 28, 1921, the new Peace Dollar design was introduced and the Morgan Dollar retired.

History
The Morgan Dollar Silver Coin holds a special place in world history. It was the second-to-last US silver dollar design and the second-longest-running design as well. The coin has connections to the Royal Mint of England. George T. Morgan formerly worked as a die engraver with the Royal Mint, before moving to the United States and becoming an Assistant Engraver at the US Mint. He created the Morgan Dollar design and completed his career at the US Mint as the 7th Chief Engraver of the United States Mint, a position he held until his death in 1925.
