Additional Description: The 1904 Silver Morgan Dollar from the Philadelphia Mint represents the final chapter in the original Morgan Dollar series, marking the end of an era in American silver coinage. George T. Morgan’s enduring design portrays Liberty in profile, her hair adorned with wheat and cotton to symbolize the nation’s agricultural and industrial foundations. On the reverse, the American eagle appears with wings outstretched, clutching arrows and an olive branch, expressing both strength and peace.

Without a mintmark, this coin was struck at the Philadelphia Mint, the nation’s primary facility known for its precision and consistent quality. Composed of 90 percent silver and 10 percent copper, it carries both intrinsic and historical value.

The 1904 issue is especially significant as it concluded regular Morgan Dollar production until the series’ brief revival in 1921. Well-preserved examples from Philadelphia display crisp detail and soft luster, serving as graceful reminders of America’s Gilded Age artistry and its long tradition of silver coinage.
