Morgan Dollars are a type of silver dollar coin minted by the United States from 1878 to 1904 and again in 1921. The 1881 Morgan Dollar from the New Orleans Mint is particularly sought after by collectors due to its unique mintmark and the historical significance of the O mintmark. This coin features the iconic design by George T. Morgan, showcasing Lady Liberty on the obverse and an owl-adorned eagle on the reverse, making it a notable representation of late 19th-century American currency. Collectors value the coin for its artistry, silver content, and historical context, with specific demand for higher-grade specimens.
