Although there were four mints that produced the Morgan silver dollar, only two still stand today: the Philadelphia Mint and the San Francisco Mint. The San Francisco Mint minted millions of Morgans at a time but their large production quantity didn't deter them from producing great quality coins. This west coast based mint began 9 years before its involvement with the Morgan and impressed the country. In just the first year of business, it turned out $4 million dollars of gold into coins, beginning a very successful and lucrative business. It quickly outgrew its first building and moved to the Granite Lady building, where it withheld its structure during the 1906 San Francisco earthquake. The building wasn't actually made of granite, just the basement was but the name was used for marketing and stuck. Your 1978-S Morgan Silver Dollar has been certified by NGC and has earned an ideal grade, for a Morgan, of MS64. Your coin is packaged in an sleek coin holder and is labeled for your convenience.
