The Morgan silver dollar first came into this world in 1878, after the reign of the Seated Liberty dollar. The assistant engraver, who was responsible for the famous design of the coin, would become Chief engraver 40 years later. George T. Morgan grew up in England, where he learned the trade of being an engraver. Other than the Morgan, he was also responsible for other coin's designs, such as the Columbian Exposition half dollar.
