1898-O NCG MS-63 Morgan Silver Dollar Coin
From 1878 to 1904, the US Mint massively produced Morgan Dollars. The coins weighed .7734 oz of 90% pure silver and had an iconic design created by George T. Morgan.
In 1921, Morgan Dollars were reintroduced as the US’ official circulating dollar coin, right before the introduction of the Peace Silver Dollars.
Several branches of the US Mint manufactured Morgan Dollars over the years, including Philadelphia, New Orleans, Denver, San Francisco, and Carson City, until 1893, when coinage operations in this last facility ceased.
Those coins minted with the “O” mint mark were issued in the New Orleans Mint.
