Silver - 1/4 oz Morgan Round

Morgan 1/4 oz Silver Round

The Morgan 1/4 oz Silver Round design is a replica of the original Morgan Silver Dollar, minted from 1878-to 1904. The Morgan Dollar was designed by George T. Morgan as a departure from the typical designs of the period. Morgan desired to feature Lady Liberty with more of an American woman's resemblance.

Highlights

History

The U.S . Mint released the Morgan Silver Dollar in 1878 and discontinued it in 1904. After millions of Morgan Silver Dollars were melted down in 1918 (courtesy of the Pittman Act), Morgan Silver Dollars were released one final year in 1921. Morgan Silver Dollars are an important part of American silver coinage history.

Many people who buy 1/4 oz silver rounds also buy the other fractional sizes, including 1/10 and 1/2 oz. Also, with your interest in the Morgan Silver Round, you may want to consider the Buffalo Silver Round and the Silver Walking Liberty Round, as well.
