1899-O Morgan $1 PCGS MS64

Morgan Silver Dollars are reminiscent of the Wild West. They were the big, heavy silver coins that were in strongboxes or transported on Western stagecoaches. These coins each contain .77344 of a Troy Ounce of pure silver and they are between 100 and 150 years old.
When silver dollar coins were re-established in 1878, new obverse and reverse designs for this new silver dollar coin were required. George T. Morgan, the Assistant Engraver at the US Mint, created the design for both sides.
On the obverse of the coin, Morgan depicted a profile of Miss Liberty, facing to the left. She is wearing a Phrygian, or slave cap, on her head. There is a crown on the top of it, made of cotton and wheat. The word “LIBERTY,” is inscribed on the headband. The upper periphery has the motto, “E PLURIBUS UNUM,” and below Miss Liberty is the date of minting. There are thirteen six-pointed stars spread out around the motto –seven on the left side and six on the right side.
The reverse depicts an American Bald Eagle, as required by law, and it is centered inside of an olive wreath. The eagle holds arrows in one talon and an olive branch in the other. The eagle’s wings are upright and outstretched and between the wings is the motto “IN GOD WE TRUST.” “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” is on the upper periphery and “ONE DOLLAR,” is on the lower periphery.
This coin was struck in 1899 at the New Orleans Mint. This coin bears an “O” mintmark, below the eagle. The New Orleans Mint struck 12,290,000 silver dollar coins that year.
