1878–1921 Morgan Silver Dollar 1-Pound Bag VG
Secure Your Bag Of Classic Morgan Silver Dollars!
It’s been more than 100 years since the last Morgan Silver Dollar was struck for circulation. The most revered, most-collected vintage U.S. Silver Dollars ever, the Morgan owns a well-earned reputation as the coin that helped build the Wild West. Cowboys, ranchers, outlaws... they all preferred carry Morgans in their saddle bags, preferring their “hard currency” to flimsy paper money favored by Easterners at the time.
American Silver From The Fabulous Comstock Lode
Struck in 26.73 grams of highly pure 90% fine American silver mined from the fabulous Comstock Lode, the largest silver strike in United States history, Morgans were minted from 1878 to 1904, then again for one final time in 1921. They came to be known by the name of their designer, George T. Morgan, and they were also nicknamed “cartwheels” because of their large weight and size.
Fewer Than 15% Of Morgans Still Exist
Today, collecting vintage Morgans has become more popular than ever before thanks to the U.S. Mint’s release of brand-new Morgan Silver Dollars in 2021 to commemorate the 100th Anniversary of the last Morgans struck for circulation. Sadly, coin experts estimate that fewer than 15% of all Morgan Silver Dollars ever minted from 1878 to 1921 still exist today due to the ravages of time and to U.S. government legislation that authorized the melting of hundreds of millions of Morgan Silver Dollars for their fine silver.

COIN HIGHLIGHTS:
- AMERICA’S MOST POPULAR COIN – The Morgan Silver Dollar—so named for its designer, U.S. Mint Assistant Engraver George T. Morgan—has stood the test of time. Struck from 1878 to 1904 and again in 1921, it was the coin of America’s “Wild West” and jingled in the coin purses of gamblers, gunfighters, soldiers, and dance hall girls.
- CLASSIC DESIGNS – Morgan’s historic design depicts a profile of Lady Liberty on the obverse while the reverse features an eagle with outstretched wings. The model used for Liberty was Miss Anna Williams of Philadelphia, who Morgan declared to have the most perfect feminine profile he had ever seen.
- STRUCK IN GLEAMING AMERICAN SILVER – Struck in 26.73 grams of highly pure 90% fine silver from the famous Comstock Lode, the Morgan Silver Dollar is a big coin measuring 38.1 mm in diameter. When this coin was plunked down on a counter, its weight meant real money, pure and simple.
- LEGAL TENDER SILVER DOLLAR – Morgans were $1 legal tender and struck during the heyday of America’s Wild West era where coins were overwhelmingly preferred over paper currency.
- VERY GOOD CONDITION – Each coin in your 1878–1921 Morgan Silver Dollar One-Pound Bag will come in nice Very Good (VG) condition.
- THE CASE OF THE DISAPPEARING MORGANS – While millions of Morgan Silver Dollars were struck from 1878 through 1921, massive silver meltings and the ravages of time have taken their toll. Today coin experts believe that only 15% of all Morgans ever struck remain in existence in any condition!
