2024-S PCGS PR-70 UC First Day of Issue Morgan Dollar Proof Silver Coin - Morgan Dollar Label
The Morgan Dollarare prized for its iconic design, silver content, and historical significance,
This historic silver coin was minted in the United States from 1878 to 1904 and again in 1921 as the official dollar coin for widespread circulation.
The Fourth US Mint Chief Engraver, George T. Morgan, featured a portrait of Lady Liberty on the obverse and an eagle on the reverse, symbolizing American expansion during the late 19th century.
In 2021, the US celebrated the 100th anniversary of its final issuance by releasing a commemorative bullion version. The coin's immediate success prompted the US Mint to maintain regular strikes.
Those issued in the San Francisco branch bear the “S” mint mark.
SD Bullion offers 2024-S Morgan Silver Dollars, purchased from the US Mint on day #1 of their official release. They are graded as PR-70 UC coins and sealed in PCGS slabs with the commemorative 100th Anniversary Morgan Dollar Label.

A PCGS PR-70 UC First Day of Issue coin
PCGS—Professional Coin Grading Service appraises and grades coins independently from sovereign mints. It uses the Sheldon Scale, which ranges from 1 to 70.
According to PCGS, a “First Day of Issue” coin is a sample purchased on the first day they were made publicly available.
The initials PR stand for Proof Coin, indicating a coin produced for collection purposes. It exhibits mirror-like surfaces in contrast with frosted design elements.
The expression “UC,” “UCAM,” or Ultra Cameo means this contrast is deeper and more intense than in other proof coins. Grade 70 is attributed to flawless coins.
