2023 (Philadelphia Mint - No Mintmark) Morgan Silver Dollar NGC Mint State (MS)70 (FDI) First Day Issue Morgan Dollar Label

The coinage law of 1873 made no provision for the standard silver dollar. During the lapse in coinage of this denomination, the gold dollar became the unit coin, and the trade dollar was used for commercial transactions with the Orient. Resumption of coinage of the silver dollar was authorized by the Act of February 28,1878, known as the Bland-Allison Act. George T. Morgan, formerly a pupil of William Wyon in the Royal Mint in London, designed the new dollar. His initial M is found at the truncation of the neck, at the last tress. It also appears on the reverse on the left-hand loop of the ribbon. With a limited mintage of only 275,000 units  add these to your collection today!
