Morgan Silver Dollar Fine Condition 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. There were four US Mints that took part in the Morgan's production: Philadelphia, Carson City, San Francisco, and New Orleans. To this day, the New Orleans Mint stands as one of the oldest historic landmarks in the US. Proudly stamped with the "O" mint-mark, this Morgan silver dollar was minted in the New Orleans sector of the US Mint. This Morgan's fine condition reveals Lady Liberty with worn features and the eagle's feathers are also worn and not as sharp as they once were. Morgans that are in fine condition also exhibit a very smooth surface, due to the heavy amount of wear.
