1921 Morgan Silver Dollar – ICG MS65+
Add a high-grade example of the final-year Morgan Dollar to your collection with this 1921 Morgan Silver Dollar, certified ICG MS65+. Struck at the Philadelphia Mint, the 1921 issue marked the return of Morgan Dollar production after a 17-year hiatus and represents the final year of the original Morgan Dollar series. The Philadelphia Mint produced 44,690,000 examples.
Graded Mint State 65+ (MS65+) by ICG, this coin is fully uncirculated and offers an exceptional level of preservation. The MS65+ designation represents a premium example within the MS65 grade, with strong overall eye appeal, attractive mint luster, and excellent surface quality.
The 1921 Morgan Dollar is distinctive from earlier issues because the Mint had to create new dies after the original Morgan Dollar hubs had been destroyed. The resulting coins were struck with shallow relief, and many examples exhibit softness in the central details. A high-grade example such as this ICG MS65+ provides an excellent opportunity to own a well-preserved example of this final-year issue.
Designed by George T. Morgan, the obverse features Liberty wearing her iconic Phrygian cap, while the reverse showcases the familiar eagle clutching arrows and an olive branch. Struck in 90% silver, the Morgan Dollar contains approximately 0.7734 troy ounces of pure silver.
With its final-year status, classic Morgan Dollar design, 90% silver composition, and premium ICG MS65+ grade, this coin is an excellent addition to a Morgan Dollar date set, type collection, or collection of classic American silver coinage.
