U.S. Morgan Silver Dollars San Francisco S Mint Reverse

U.S. Morgan Silver Dollars are the most popular and widely collected of all U.S. silver coins. Minted between 1878 and 1904, and again in 1921, in Philadelphia, New Orleans, San Francisco, and Carson City, these classic silver coins served as the backbone of daily commerce, both nationally and internationally, for decades.

Named after their designer, James T. Morgan, Morgan Silver Dollars are also known as Liberty Head dollars because of the radiant, dignified profile of Miss Liberty featured on the obverse. The reverse depicts the inspiring image of an American Eagle, standing tall with widespread wings, perched confidently upon the olive branch of peace and the arrows of military strength.

San Francisco, the first Western mint

The legendary San Francisco Mint opened its doors in 1854, primarily to convert gold from the Californian Gold Rush and silver from the Comstock Lode into coins for the growing population of California. The rich history of the American West is literally embodied in the coins from this fabled mint. After the tragic earthquake of 1906 it was one of the few buildings left standing, earning it the nickname the Granite Lady.

Struck between 1878 and 1921, Morgan Silver Dollars from San Francisco are especially prized among collectors because of their exceptionally sharp strikes and blazing mint luster. San Francisco used the newest and most modern press of all the mints during this era. The extremely high pressure generated by the new press gave “S” mintmark Morgan Silver Dollars their famous luster, or surface glow, and their bold, full strikes.

Our San Francisco minted Morgan Silver Dollars are the best of the best in Gem Brilliant Uncirculated, MS 65 condition. We hand select each coin for stunning eye appeal and outstanding technical merit.
