1885 NGC MS-63 Morgan Dollar Silver Coin
The US Mint produced Morgan Dollars from 1878 to 1904, which served as the circulating dollar coins in the US during that period.
Named after its designer, George T. Morgan, Morgan Dollars symbolize America's industrial growth and westward expansion in the 19th century. The coins' metal content accounted for .7734 ounces of silver.
The US Mint reintroduced them as circulation coins in 1921, and a special edition was issued in 2021 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the last official minting.
At SD Bullion, you can find 1885 Morgan Silver Dollar Coins, sealed in NGC slabs and certified as MS-63 coins.
