Morgan Silver Dollar Almost Uncirculated 1881-O

The Morgan Silver dollar's production became quite a difficult task between the constant passing of bills to regulate the mining of silver. From 1878-1904, the Morgan dollar was the circulating dollar of US currency but because of the freelance mining of silver, the government wanted to have more regulations on the precious metal. 1904 marked the Morgan dollar's (almost) last year of mintage before one more hoorah. Because of the Pittman Act in 1918, the reauthorization of silver dollars was passed and Morgans had their final year of mintage in 1921. Also minted that year was the Peace dollar, which would surpass the Morgan as the new silver dollar. Your 1881-O Morgan was minted in New Orleans and features the "O" mint-mark. Its condition is considered to be in almost uncirculated, with some wear on Lady Liberty's cheeks and the eagle's wings.
