NGC Gem 2010 $100 Union George T. Morgan Proof Gold Round
The $100 Union George T. Morgan Proof Gold Round pays tribute to Morgan's essential role in American coinage history.
George T. Morgan was one of the most important coin designers of the US Mint. To this day, the Morgan Dollar, which circulated from 1878 to 1904 and again in 1921, remains one of the most popular coins in the United States.
This Gold Round, weighing 5 Troy Oz of 99.9% fine gold, was issued in 2010. Morgan’s design imprinted on it was part of the US Mint’s 19th-century plan to strike $50 and $100 proof gold coins, denominated the Half Union and the Union, respectively. None of them were ever struck.
Today, SD Bullion offers the 2010 $100 Union George T. Morgan Proof Gold Round, certified by NGC as a GEM Proof round.
