1899-O NGC MS-62 Morgan Dollar Silver Coin

1899-O NGC MS-62 Morgan Dollar Silver Coin 

The Morgan Dollar served as the official U.S. dollar coin from 1878 to 1904, with a brief return in 1921.

A cornerstone of classic American coinage, the Morgan Silver Dollar features Lady Liberty, embodying freedom and opportunity, and the bald eagle, symbolizing the nation’s strength and dedication to peace. George T. Morgan’s design balances elegance and strength, making the coin a timeless masterpiece.

The US Mint issued Morgan Dollars through branches, including Philadelphia, New Orleans, Denver, San Francisco, and Carson City. Notably, Carson City halted its coinage operations in 1893.

Those Morgan Dollars issued in the New Orleans Mint bear the “O” mint mark.
