The Morgan Silver Dollar was a product of the U.S. Mint from 1878 until 1921, featuring dramatic patriotic designs created by the Mint's assistant engraver George T. Morgan. This 38.1 mm diameter 1881 Morgan Dollar was struck at the Carson City Mint in Nevada from 0.7734 Troy oz. of .900 fine silver.
