Still at the Center of It All, the Morgan Dollars
SOME UNITED States coin series undergo periods when they are hot, then times when they are cold. Classic commemorative half dollars might qualify as a good example. Some seem to just stay cold, like 2¢ or 3¢ pieces. And some appear to be in the spotlight no matter what happens within the hobby. It’s a fair bet to say that Morgan dollars fall into this category. With the year 2021 marking the centennial anniversary of both the end of the Morgan dollar series and the start of the Peace dollars – and with possible commemoratives for this – now might just be a good time to see how affordable these ever-popular Morgan dollars can be.
Issued from 1878 up to 1904, and then in one final torrent in 1921, the Morgan dollars are the design work of Mint engraver
