1890-1894

1892-O Morgan Silver Dollar Very Fine

Morgan silver dollar mintages plunged dramatically in the 1890s, because a relatively high number was already in commerce. In 1892, the Treasury stemmed the New Orleans production to just 2.7 million, only about one-third of the previous year's...

1890-O Morgan Silver Dollar Very Fine

The 1890-O Morgan silver dollar began circulating the same year that Nellie Bly became the first woman to circumnavigate the globe and Idaho and Wyoming became U.S. states. Typically, O-mintmark Morgans of the Old South offer special value, weighing...

1894-O Morgan Silver Dollar Very Fine

The 1894 date is the second toughest to find in the 28-date Morgan dollar series. (It's the most elusive and costly Philadelphia Mint circulation issue, commanding thousands of dollars in Very Fine quality.) The most affordable choice for the date is the...

1892-P Morgan Silver Dollar Very Fine

Morgan silver dollar mintages plunged dramatically in the 1890's, because a relatively high number was already in commerce. In 1892, just 1.0 million Morgans were issued by the principal Philadelphia Mint, whose outputs had averaged over 20 million per...

1891-O Morgan Silver Dollar Very Fine

It's a costly issue in elusive mint-state quality, but you pay only a fraction of the price for our clearly detailed Very Fine quality. And these attractive VFs are much scarcer than the average in the Morgan series - other issues have as many as 20...

1891-CC Morgan Silver Dollar Very Fine

The 1891-CC Carson City issue had a far lower mintage than the year's Philadelphia, New Orleans and San Francisco individual outputs, and remains the key scarcity for the date. We offer nicely detailed Very Fine quality that circulated in the Old West as...

1891-P Morgan Silver Dollar Very Fine

This no-mintmark 1891 Morgan silver dollar of the principal Philadelphia mint had an output only about half that of the 1890 Philadelphia issue. And today as few as 230,000, just 3% of its modest production, may survive in mint-state quality. That puts...

1891-S Morgan Silver Dollar Very Fine

This vintage silver dollar was released well over 12 decades ago as the Western Frontier was beginning to close. Huge numbers of U.S. Treasury bags of this issue were later lost in government melts, so it's a tough find in mint-state quality. In our...

1890-S Morgan Silver Dollar Very Fine

Today this issue is at the most affordable price level for San Francisco Mint Morgan silver dollars in Very Fine quality. Most S-mintmark issues of its era cost a lot more, many from the middle of the rare decade of the 1890s sell for much more. It's a...

1890-CC Morgan Silver Dollar Very Fine

Carson City struck 2.3 million silver dollars which was the lowest output of any mint in 1890. But with a plethora of silver dollars already in commerce much of its original mintage was tucked away in storage vaults. Today, just a small number remain as...

1890-S Morgan Silver Dollar Brilliant Uncirculated

After the first five San Francisco Mint Morgan issues of 1878-1882, S-mintmark BUs become really tough to find. The 1890-S San Francisco Mint issue is at the most affordable level of S-Mint Morgan BUs in the 1883-1904 span. S Morgans from these years...

1892-S Morgan Silver Dollar Very Fine

A scant 1.2 million San Francisco Morgans were struck in 1892 and it seems that most were released into circulation. In today's world, that translates to a very small number of specimens that survive in mint-state quality — their scarcity commands a...

1893-P Morgan Silver Dollar Very Fine

Morgan dollar mintages temporarily nosedived after the 1893 repeal of the Sherman Silver Purchase Act. Only 378,000 were issued by the principal Philadelphia Mint in 1893, just a small fraction of average earlier mintages. This elusive issue remains one...

1891-S Morgan Silver Dollar Brilliant Uncirculated

After the first five issues of 1878-1882, mint-state San Francisco Mint Morgan issues tend to be elusive and costly. The only exceptions from 1883 to 1904 are the 1890-S and 1891-S BU issues. However, the 1891-S Morgan's mintage was considerably lower...

1890-CC Morgan Silver Dollar Extra Fine

The 1890-CC Carson City issue remains a key scarcity today — it had a far lower mintage than the year's Philadelphia, New Orleans and San Francisco individual outputs and a disproportionately small number has survived to our day. Relatively few ever...

1890-O Morgan Silver Dollar Brilliant Uncirculated

We seldom feature this issue because it's so elusive. The vast majority of the 1890-O New Orleans mintage was lost in U.S. Treasury melts during the world wars. Earlier O-mintmark issues are up to 35 times as plentiful in BU condition. Our Brilliant...

1890-P Morgan Silver Dollar Brilliant Uncirculated

It's the only BU Morgan dollar of the early 1890s that's so affordable today. As few as 2% of the Philadelphia 1890 production survives in mint-state quality. Earlier issues in the series that cost the same can be up to ten times as plentiful in...

1892-CC Morgan Silver Dollar Very Fine

As production in this small Nevada mint scaled down (much less silver than earlier was then being mined at the nearby Comstock Lode), its 1,352,000 mintage was the lowest Carson City Morgan dollar output since 1889. It's estimated that as few as 70,000...

1891-P Morgan Silver Dollar Brilliant Uncirculated

This no-mintmark 1891 issue of the principal mint had an output only about half that of the 1890 Philadelphia Morgan dollar. Today as few as 230,000 are estimated to survive in mint-state quality (some earlier Morgan issues are vastly more plentiful)...

1893-O Morgan Silver Dollar Very Fine

Due to the repeal of the Sherman Silver Purchase Act in 1893, merely 300,000 Morgan dollars were struck for circulation by the New Orleans Mint. It was that facility's smallest production in the entire series. Today a silver dollar encyclopedia estimates...

1894-O Morgan Silver Dollar Extra Fine

The 1894 date is the second toughest to find in the 28-date Morgan dollar series. The most affordable choice for the year is this 1894-O New Orleans issue, which is scarce in its own right. Average mint-state specimens sell for $4,375! It's estimated...

1889-O Morgan Silver Dollar Extra Fine

Typically, O-mintmark Morgans of the Old South offer special value, weighing scarcity versus price. This 1890-O Morgan is no exception as it is estimated to be twice as scarce as that year's Philadelphia issue but sells for a similar price. Extra Fine...

1891 P & O Morgan Silver Dollar Pair Very Fine

Falling Mintage 1891 Morgan Silver Dollar: This no-mintmark 1891 Morgan silver dollar of the principal Philadelphia Mint had an output of only about half of the year prior. Today as few as 230,000 – just 3% of its modest production – may survive in...

1893-CC Morgan Silver Dollar Very Fine

1890-CC Morgan Silver Dollar Very Good to Fine

With a business strike of just 2.3 million Morgans, Carson City's 1890 output was the lowest of any facility that year. But like so many other issues of the series, much of its original mintage was held in storage as oodles of silver dollars were already...

1890-P Morgan Silver Dollar Very Fine

In our nicely detailed Very Fine quality, this issue is the most affordable of early 1890s Morgans - from the rare decade of the series. It hails from the year of the Sherman Silver Purchase Act, when silver was reinforced as a mainstay of the U.S...

1891-CC Morgan Silver Dollar Extra Fine

Many a Morgan collector has been besotted by two little letters: CC. Perhaps no other mintmark in American numismatics can conjure the nostalgia of the Old West quite like the signature of the Carson City Mint. Operating near the famous Comstock Lode,...

As little as 1% of this O-mintmark New Orleans Morgan's original production is estimated to survive today in mint-state quality. About Uncirculated quality.

1891-O Morgan Silver Dollar Brilliant Uncirculated

The 1891-O New Orleans Morgan is a tough find in Uncirculated quality. Just 7.9 million were minted and it's estimated that less than 50,000 may survive today in mint-state quality. By contrast, up to four million of some earlier San Francisco Mint...
