---

Only $749.00 per coin Step back in time with numismatic artistry: the 2021-D Silver Morgan Dollar, certified MS-70 by NGC. This modern re-issue beautifully revives the iconic design of the original Morgan Dollar, celebrating its legacy 100 years after its final mintage. Few coins tell a story of American history and ambition quite like the Morgan Dollar. Originally struck from 1878 to 1904, and then for one final, iconic year in 1921, this silver dollar emerged from the heart of a nation expanding westward, its creation tied to the bustling silver mines and the Bland-Allison Act. Designed by the gifted British engraver George T. Morgan, the coin quickly became a symbol of American prosperity and ingenuity. One hundred years after its last original issue, the U.S. Mint brought back the beloved Morgan Dollar in 2021, commemorating its enduring legacy with a series of special re-issues. This particular coin, bearing the "D" mint mark, proudly represents the Denver Mint, continuing a tradition that saw Denver strike original Morgan Dollars only in that pivotal year of 1921. With a limited mintage of just 175,000 for the 2021-D release, this modern rendition quickly became a highly sought-after collectible. This 2021-D Silver Morgan Dollar is truly exceptional, boasting a perfect MS-70 grade from NGC—the highest possible designation, indicating a flawless strike and pristine surface. Crafted from .999 fine silver, it contains 0.858 troy ounces of pure precious metal, with a substantial diameter of 38.1 mm and a thickness of 6.2 mm, making it a substantial piece in hand. The obverse gracefully portrays Lady Liberty, her profile adorned with a Phrygian cap, wheat, and cotton, while the reverse features a powerful heraldic eagle with outstretched wings, clutching arrows and an olive branch—symbols of defense and peace. This coin isn't just a piece of silver; it’s a tangible connection to American heritage, meticulously preserved and presented in impeccable condition for the discerning collector who cherishes both history and perfection.
