Peace & Morgan Silver Dollars

 

Morgan Dollar (1878-1904 & 1921)
George T. Morgan, formerly a pupil of the Royal Mint of London, designed this dollar, hence the name "Morgan". First minted in 1878, the Morgan silver dollar was the product of America's largest silver strike, which occurred at the Comstock Lode in northern Nevada in the mid-1870s. Though it never gained broad appeal during its production run (1878-1904; 1921), its connection to an important period in American history has rendered it a highly sought after piece among collectors. Older Morgan's are rarer because they were melted down to make 1921 Morgan's. This was called the Pittman Act of 1918, where we lost over 270 million older Morgan's.

The Peace Dollar (1921-1928; 1934-1935)
First struck in 1921 to commemorate the end of World War I, the Peace silver dollar instantly became one of the most popular coins in American history. Many consider this 90% silver coin to be the last “true” American silver dollar minted for circulation.

Pricing
Because of their greater numismatic value, pricing for silver dollar bags is based not just on the daily market price of silver, but the rarity of the coins contained in each bag.
