Own an important first-year Morgan Dollar variety with this 1878 Morgan Silver Dollar 7 Tail Feathers, Reverse of 1878, certified NGC MS64. As one of the major reverse varieties of the inaugural Morgan Dollar issue, the 7 Tail Feathers, Reverse of 1878 is an especially interesting choice for collectors who appreciate early Morgan Dollar varieties. NGC identifies the Reverse of 1878 by its flat-breasted eagle and parallel top arrow feather.

Graded Mint State 64 (MS64) by NGC, this coin is fully uncirculated and offers excellent overall preservation, attractive mint luster, and strong eye appeal. MS64 represents a premium Mint State grade, with only minor contact marks or abrasions expected for the grade.

The Reverse of 1878 is particularly significant because it represents the original reverse design used during the first year of the Morgan Dollar series. The eagle has a noticeably flatter breast, and the upper arrow feather is parallel rather than slanted, distinguishing this reverse from the later Reverse of 1879.

Struck at the Philadelphia Mint, the 1878 7 Tail Feathers Morgan Dollar is part of the historic first-year production of George T. Morgan's iconic silver dollar. The obverse features Liberty wearing her Phrygian cap, while the reverse showcases an eagle clutching arrows and an olive branch.

Struck in 90% silver, the Morgan Dollar contains approximately 0.7734 troy ounces of pure silver. Combining first-year status, a distinctive early reverse design, and a desirable NGC MS64 grade, this coin is an excellent addition to any Morgan Dollar, variety, or classic U.S. coin collection.
