1921 Morgan Silver Dollar $1 ICG MS 64
Recognized as one of the most famous coins in American numismatic history, the 1921 Morgan Silver Dollar $1 ICG MS 64 remains a favorite among collectors and silver coin investors alike. Struck by the United States Mint from 90% silver, this classic silver dollar contains approximately 0.7734 troy oz of pure silver and is certified by ICG in Mint State 64 condition. The 1921 issue holds special significance as the final year of the Morgan Dollar series, making it an important transitional coin in U.S. coinage history.
The Morgan Silver Dollar series was originally introduced in 1878 following the passage of the Bland-Allison Act, which required the U.S. government to purchase large amounts of domestic silver for coin production. Designed by George T. Morgan, the coin features a portrait of Lady Liberty on the obverse and a powerful American eagle on the reverse. Morgan Dollars quickly became symbols of the American West, banking, commerce, and the nation’s growing economy during the late 19th century. Production of the series ended in 1904 before briefly resuming in 1921 due to renewed silver coin demand under the Pittman Act. Later that same year, the Morgan Dollar was replaced by the newly introduced Peace Dollar series, making the 1921 Morgan Dollar the final chapter of one of America’s most legendary silver coin programs.
