1921 Morgan Silver Dollar
This is a 1921 Morgan Silver Dollar, a United States dollar coin featuring the profile of Lady Liberty on the obverse. The coin is composed of 90% silver and 10% copper, with a standard diameter of 38.1 millimeters. The obverse displays George T. Morgan's design of Liberty wearing a Phrygian cap with 'LIBERTY' on the band, adorned with cotton and wheat, surrounded by the motto 'E PLURIBUS UNUM' and 13 stars. The date '1921' is clearly visible at the bottom. This particular specimen exhibits a circulated grade with moderate surface wear, particularly on the higher points of Liberty's hair and the cheek. Notable condition details include uneven toning or 'patina' with yellowish and grayish hues across the fields, along with visible contact marks or 'bag marks' and small scratches consistent with commercial handling. The denticles around the rim are mostly intact, though slight softening is present. The 1921 issue was the final year of the Morgan series, struck in large quantities after a long hiatus since 1904, and this example demonstrates the flatter relief characteristic of that final year's production dies.
