1879 Morgan Silver Dollar
Capture a tangible piece of the fabled American Wild West with this stunning 1879 Philadelphia Mint Morgan Silver Dollar. Minted during the second year of George T. Morgan’s iconic series, this massive silver coin was forged during an era of rapid westward expansion, cowboy legends, and bustling frontier towns. Composed of 90% pure silver sourced directly from the legendary Comstock Lode in Nevada, it survived the sweeping melting pots of the early 20th-century world wars, making its survival to this day an extraordinary feat. This particular piece features an eye-catching, unique character with distinct organic residue and toning accents across both the obverse and reverse surfaces, giving it an authentic, untouched "battle-born" aesthetic that standard cleaned coins completely lack. It offers an incredible opportunity for both seasoned numismatists and precious metal investors to add a high-demand, historically rich classic to their vault. Secure this definitive piece of American history from Gold & Silver Assay today before it slips away into a private collection.
