The Morgan Dollar & The Bland-Allison Act

The Morgan Silver Dollar was born from the Bland-Allison Act of 1878, which reinstated silver as legal tender after a five-year halt under the Coinage Act of 1873. This legislation required the U.S. Treasury to purchase large amounts of silver for coinage, reinvigorating America’s mining industry and ushering in an era of stunning silver dollars.

Named for its designer, George T. Morgan, this coin became a defining symbol of American prosperity and innovation during the late 19th century. Today, it remains one of the most collected and recognizable silver coins in U.S. history.

Each 1878–1904 Morgan Silver Dollar is an authentic U.S. Mint coin containing .7734 troy ounces of silver. Dates and mintmarks are random, based on available inventory.
