1904-S Morgan $1
1904-S Morgan Dollar. PCGS graded AU-55. Light even toning. A sharp one, lustrous and bold, with plenty to greet the eye of even the strictist collector. Production of the Morgan silver dollar would have ended with this 1904 issue. However, in 1918, pursuant to Congress passing the Pittman Act of 1918, the Treasury caused the Mint to purchase silver to strike silver dollars with starting in 1921. Because the new Peace dollar dies weren't ready in time, the Mint resurrected the Morgan design of 1878-1904 and struck off several tens of millions of 1921-dated pieces at all three mints then operating, Philadelphia, Denver, and San Francisco. The coins were from entirely new hubs, however, which differ noticeably from this 1904 issue in appearance (PCGS # 7294) .
Estimated Value $400 - 450.

Provenance: The William Pannier Estate.
