Morgan Silver Dollar Almost Uncirculated 1878-S

George T. Morgan was the engraver who designed the Morgan in 1878. Morgan's design consists of a head shot of Lady Liberty, accentuating her side-proile features. The Morgan was first minted in 1878 but due to government silver reserved depleting, the production of the Morgans ended in 1904. The depletion of the reserves was because of a bill Congress passed that demanded all remaining silver should be melted into silver dollars. Then, in 1918 another bill was passed that authorized the minting and melting of silver dollars. The Morgan was produced for one more year in 1921 but lost the spotlight to the new Peace dollar. Your 1978-S Morgan Silver Dollar was minted at the San Francisco sector of the US Mint. Your 1878-S Morgan is considered to be almost uncirculated condition, with some wear on the main images and the natural luster has diminished.
