Highland Mint 1-oz Silver Morgan Dollar Tribute Round
The Famous Morgan Silver Dollar Now Available As Stunning One-Ounce Silver Tribute
When travelers approached the mountains around Virginia City, Nevada in the 1850s, they reported the hills shone in the sunlight like a mirror. A few years later, the reason was discovered—the mountains were covered in tiny flecks of silver mountains reflecting the sun like tiny mirrors! The silver ore discovered there became known as the Comstock Lode, the world’s richest deposit.
The World’s Most Popular And Collected Coin
The U.S. government soon put all that silver to good use, passing the Bland–Allison Act that authorized the striking of a new silver dollar. As designed by U.S. Mint Assistant Engraver George T. Morgan, the coin featured a profile of Lady Liberty on the obverse while the reverse depicted an eagle with outstretched wings. Popular throughout the Wild West where coins were preferred over paper currency, Morgan Silver Dollars were struck from 1878 to 1904 and once again for one last time in 1921. Today, Morgans are among the world’s most popular and collected coins.
