Additional Description: The 1899 Silver Morgan Dollar from the San Francisco Mint exemplifies the precision and artistry for which that facility was renowned. George T. Morgan’s design depicts Liberty in profile, her hair crowned with wheat and cotton to symbolize the nation’s agricultural and industrial strengths. On the reverse, the American eagle spreads its wings, clutching arrows and an olive branch, embodying both power and peace.
A small S mintmark beneath the wreath identifies its San Francisco origin, a mint celebrated for sharp strikes and well-defined detail. Composed of 90 percent silver and 10 percent copper, the coin combines intrinsic value with refined craftsmanship, offering collectors a tangible connection to the artistry and economic confidence of the United States at the close of the nineteenth century.
