1921-S Morgan Silver Dollar. MS-66+ (NGC).

1921-S Morgan Silver Dollar. MS-66+ (NGC). A bright, golden-tinged Gem with traces of semi-reflectivity in the fields. When Morgan dollar production halted in 1904, no one anticipated a resumption in coinage, and the Mint destroyed the hubs in 1910. Faced with the unexpected delay in completion of the new Peace design, Chief Engraver George T. Morgan (assisted by John R. Sinnock) was forced to prepare copy hubs based on the 1878 7 Tailfeathers, Reverse of 1878 variety. These copy hubs are easily distinguished from the originals as the design is in much shallower relief and of overall poorer workmanship. Nevertheless, the dies that they produced were duly employed by the Philadelphia, Denver and San Francisco mints to strike immense quantities of 1921-dated Morgan dollars. The present example is one of 21.695 million coins struck at the San Francisco Mint that year and it ranks as one of the very finest certified by NGC, making it ideal for an advanced collection. NGC Census: 15; with a single MS-67 finer. The corresponding PCGS Population is 26/0. PCGS# 7300. NGC ID: 256Z. Click here for certification details from NGC.
