1921 Morgan Silver Dollar – Philadelphia Mint (Circulated)

This 1921 Morgan Silver Dollar marks the last year of production for George T. Morgan’s classic design, making it a historic and collectible piece. Struck at the Philadelphia Mint (no mint mark), this coin features Lady Liberty in left-facing profile wearing a Phrygian cap adorned with cotton and wheat, symbolizing liberty and agricultural strength.

The reverse showcases the bald eagle with outstretched wings, clutching arrows and an olive branch, framed by a laurel wreath and the motto “In God We Trust.” The 1921 issue is notable for its slightly revised design and higher-relief details due to updated dies after a 17-year hiatus in Morgan Dollar production.

This example shows moderate circulation wear, light toning, and honest patina, preserving good detail across Liberty’s hair and the eagle’s feathers.
