MS65 Morgan Dollars at a Steal for Their Rarity

The Morgan silver dollar is arguably the most popular item in American numismatics. These big, beautiful coins are historically intriguing and visually impressive. Holding one in your hands evokes images of the Wild West, old-time saloons, and gambling halls of a bygone era. Indeed, the Morgan dollar owes its existence to Nevada mining interests—and the coin saw its heaviest use in the West. Whereas Americans on the East Coast were more likely to embrace the $1 paper note, Westerners preferred to hold real money in the form of silver dollars.

The Morgan Silver Dollar: A Rare Piece of History
In 1878, the Bland-Allison Act was passed by Congress. In essence, this piece of legislation required the U.S. government to acquire between 2 to 4 million ounces of silver monthly. President Hayes actually vetoed the bill, but Congress pushed it through with huge majorities voting in favor of the legislation. Once the ink was dry on the new act, the U.S. Mint started working on a new silver dollar coin. The task fell to George T. Morgan, a young but talented engraver who was already experimenting with new motifs for America’s silver coins.

The subject matter of Morgan’s silver dollar design wasn’t groundbreaking, but it was superbly executed. Sticking with tradition, Morgan had a female figure of Liberty on the obverse and an outstretched eagle on the reverse. This general theme had existed since the 1790s, but Morgan’s rendition was extraordinarily beautiful. The coin shows exquisite and intricate design detail, especially with regard to Liberty’s flowing hair curls and the eagle’s feathers.

It’s not just the design that makes Morgan dollars beautiful—one cannot ignore their booming luster. Morgan’s design was superbly proportioned and formatted. As a result, most Uncirculated Morgan dollars exhibit outstanding “cartwheel” luster. They have a type of radiant flash the likes of which is rarely seen on any other U.S. coin.

Amazingly, despite their rarity, MS65 Morgan dollars are available for about $100-150 in today’s market. This strikes us as outstanding value. From 1970’s and early 1980’s, an MS65 Morgan from a common date could have set you back hundreds, if not thousands of dollars.
