The Morgan Silver Dollar was a staple of American currency during a transformative period in U.S. history. Struck from 1878 to 1904 and again in 1921, the coin symbolizes the economic expansion of the late 19th century. The 1894 issue, minted in New Orleans, is particularly significant due to its lower production numbers and the role the New Orleans Mint played in producing these silver dollars for widespread use.

Historical Significance:
The Morgan Silver Dollar, first minted in 1878, was a result of the Bland-Allison Act, which mandated the purchase of silver to stimulate the U.S. economy. The 1894 Morgan Dollar, minted in New Orleans, is notable for its relatively low mintage of 1,723,000, making it a sought-after year for collectors. The artistry of George T. Morgan remains celebrated, with the Morgan Dollar often considered one of the most beautiful U.S. coins ever produced.
