1921 Morgan Silver Dollar NGC UNC Details BRILLIANT

1921 Morgan Silver Dollar - NGC Brilliant Uncirculated

Offered here is an authentic 1921 Morgan Silver Dollar, struck at the Philadelphia Mint and certified by NGC as Brilliant Uncirculated.

The 1921 Morgan Dollar represents the final year of the original Morgan Dollar series and marked the return of the design after a 17-year interruption in production following 1904. Morgan Dollar production resumed in 1921 under the requirements of the Pittman Act before the Peace Dollar was introduced later that year.

The Philadelphia Mint produced 44,690,000 Morgan Dollars in 1921, the largest single-year mintage from any mint in the Morgan Dollar series. As a Philadelphia Mint issue, this coin carries no mintmark.

Designed by George T. Morgan, the obverse features the iconic portrait of Liberty surrounded by stars and the date, while the reverse depicts a heraldic eagle with outstretched wings surrounded by a wreath. The 1921 issue was produced using newly prepared hubs, resulting in design characteristics that distinguish it from earlier Morgan Dollars.

This example has been certified by NGC as Brilliant Uncirculated, indicating an uncirculated coin that retains Mint State characteristics without a specific numerical grade stated in the provided certification description.
